30% of all Mounds View School district students qualify for free and reduced lunch and breakfast programs. For many of these children, school meals may be the only meals they eat. What happens on the weekend? The Ralph Reeder Food Shelf's weekend Snackpack Program has been helping children get the nutritious and easy-to-prepare food they need to get them through weekends and school breaks. Last year through Ralph Reeder 14,000 snackpacks were distributed to 350 students. Each snackpack contains 2 breakfasts, 2 meals and 6 nutritious snacks

Our Club volunteered last week and was challenged to pack 220 of these snackpacks. Were we able to accomplish that? NO, we packed 440 snackpacks for students that would have gone hungry over weekends! Way to go team!
