Portland Backpack

Mission
Portland Backpack’s mission is to serve children who are at risk of hunger by providing food sacks for weekend days when food scarcity is higher. We believe that engaging the community in our efforts creates a greater impact that reaches beyond reducing hunger.
Bottom Line for Portland
Every Friday in Portland, thousands of kids go home worried about having enough to eat on the weekend. Portland Backpack offers a simple solution, put a sack of meals with a care card into their hands to take home each Friday.
Quote
“When we are meeting our children's need sometimes we do our best and it's like ‘this is what we have’. But what I love about Portland Backpack is it wasn't ‘this is just what we have’ but ‘what do you need’ and the response to that from Portland Backpack was incredible.” - Nichole Watson, Principal, Prescott Elementary
Incentives
