Food 2 Kids Programs
The West Texas Food Bank's Food 2 Kids program has evolved to include all children's programming. The backpack program will always be the heartbeat of Food 2 Kids, but Food 2 Kids has grown and evolved into one of the most successful programs of the Food Bank. Other programs now included are: Kids Café, Summer Feeding, Food 2 Babies Formula Program, and School Pantries.
Beginning with our Food 2 Babies formula program, infants will receive the proper nutrition to grow and thrive. Next, elementary age students will receive sacks of ready-to-eat food for the weekends. And finally, secondary age students and their families will be served by school pantries on campus or nearby.
Additionally, Food 2 Kids includes Kids Café and our Summer Feeding sites. Both feeding programs provide necessary meals for children who might otherwise go hungry.
Tens of thousands of West Texas children are food insecure, but the amazing combination of programs incorporated under Food 2 Kids ensures the West Texas Food Bank is serving children ages zero to eighteen.
