NEED #5297 | Spring Break Food Boxes for Watauga County Schools

WATAUGA | With schools being officially closed for Spring Break beginning April 13, that means the county’s food box program will also be shut down for a week. School social workers are seeking funds to provide food bags with 5 days worth of food to thousands of children. 100 bags of food costs $850 and each can feed 2 children for 5 days. The school hopes to provide 4,000 meals during that week. Any amount helps, and will help overburdened parents and children for whom school meals may be their only source of food during the school year. Thank you!
