About Our Program
Funded by community donations by organizations such as the Marlboro Faculty Association, our BackPacks For Food Program provides a weekend's worth of healthy, well-balanced meals in small bags. The bags are packed with the assitance of the MCSD Honor Society and Food Service Department and then given to the students' teachers every Friday to be discreetly placed into the child's backpack.
