DCF Helping Kids Learn by Serving Meals

This video is a creation from one of our High School student volunteers. DCF needs most of its volunteers for the BackPack Buddy program that is runs for local needy children. The BackPack Buddy Program provides children from food-insecure homes with weekend meals during the school year. The children receive a backpack containing six balanced meals and two healthy snacks each Friday to supplement food they would normally receive during school. The children are identified by school principals and guidance counselors. DCF provides backpacks to Elementary, Middle, High School and even College students.
