In Person: Helping Hungry Kids

Children will learn about food insecurity and then pack Buddy Boxes that will be given to local children experiencing food insecurity. Who this In Person Event is for: Ages 4-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling. What you’ll be doing: Every child deserves to have enough food to eat. Seeds of Caring is partnering up with Buddy Box Connection to pack Buddy Boxes! Buddy Boxes are filled with nutritious, kid-friendly foods that are handed out every Friday during the school year to children who qualify for their school’s free or reduced lunch program. We will learn about Buddy Box Connection, play a board game that helps kids understand and grow in empathy for those who struggle with food access, and then help pack Buddy Boxes. Specific Instructions: All supplies will be provided. Why you'll be asked to pay a supply fee and donate: On the next page, you'll be asked to pay a fee to offset supply costs for this event. These fees are non-refundable. If you have to cancel your registration later, please know that your fee will go toward our efforts to create more meaningful service-focused programs for kids. Every time we're able to design, coordinate, and offer an opportunity for kids to give back, it's with the help of supporters like you. Please consider making a generous gift to help us continue to empower kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds. We never want supply fees to prevent someone from participating in a Seeds of Caring project. If you would like assistance covering your supply fees, please email [email protected], and we will register you for free, no questions asked.
