September Charity:
Sharon Schools Backpack Program

We realize that hardworking families often struggle with financial hardships which can make it difficult to provide daily meals. While Sharon area children are able to receive food in school for breakfast and lunch, on the weekends and vacations there may be little food available to them. Each week teams of volunteers meet at Community Food Warehouse, to pack the bags of non-perishable food items for the children. On the last day of school before each weekend or vacation, healthy, non-perishable food items are discretely placed in selected children’s backpacks to enjoy over the weekend.
