School Pantries
School Pantries were designed to provide permanent on-site food assistance at local schools with high food insecurity rates. This newer method of addressing food insecurity for families places pantries on school grounds with the purpose of having year-round accessibility to meal prep items, student-friendly snacks, and health and hygiene items.
Power Pack
Each Friday during the school year, Freestore Foodbank sends packs of food, known as Power Packs, home with students to ensure they have something to eat on weekends. Each Power Pack contains over a dozen food items, which are shelf-stable and kid-friendly.
The persistence of hunger in America
Claire Babineaux-Fontenot of Feeding America recently sat down with the folks from CBS's Sunday Morning and talk about the challenges facing our neighbors impacted by food insecurity.
Freestore Foodbank’s mission is to improve lives by eliminating hunger in partnership with our community, and our vision is to create a hunger-free, healthy, and thriving community. To achieve this vision, our objectives are to provide nutritious food, connect to support services and offer a pathway from crisis to stability.
