The BackSnacks program provides a backpack, or bag, full of food for hungry children in the Kansas City area. Every weekend hundreds of school chilren leave school to go to a home that has little or no food. The BackSnacks provide enough food to sustain these children through the weekend and return them to school ready to learn.
