Virtual Meals You Make a Difference.
Your gift to the Toledo Northwestern Ohio Food Bank will give hope. The Virtual Food Drive is an easy and efficient way for you, your company or organization to feed the hungry in Northwest Ohio. Each $1.00 donation provides four meals for the hungry in our community.
While we welcome needed donations of food from grocery chains, restaurants, etc., a financial contribution of virtual meals really does make a difference to the needy in our community and allows for flexibility not available through physical food donations.
Please consider a financial donation today and participate with us in providing assistance for Virtual Meals, the BackPack and Kids Café where additional help is needed.
BackPack Program The Need Does Not Stop On Weekends
The BackPack Program was developed in response to a school nurse who asked for help because hungry students were coming to her with stomach aches and dizziness.
The BackPack Program is designed to meet the needs of hungry children at times when they are likely to go hungry on weekends and during school breaks. |
|
Backpacks are filled with food they can bring home on weekends and holiday vacation to provide food that is not otherwise available.
|
We are very supportive of this program and its ability to help hungry children and are asking for your assistance. With your tax deductible donation, you too can provide children with the nutritious food items they need to stop their hunger.
Kids Cafe
Before & After School Nutrition
Kids Café provides after-school meals to disadvantaged children in a safe, accessible, and convenient environment. Kids Cafe nourishes the mind, as well as the belly, through learning activities about hunger and nutrition.
Kids Café provides a fun and enriching before and after school experience to meet their social, emotional, academic and physical needs. Of course, it is difficult for hungry children to focus on these needs while their nutritional needs are unmet. Toledo Foodbank provides well-balanced nutritious meals at these critical times to support the child’s needs to learn and grow.
