Thank you so much for your gift to support the Weekend Backpack Program during Hunger Action Month 2025. Your gift shows others that you believe this cause is important and will inspire listeners to join you during the on-air event – multiplying the impact of your donation.

The Weekend Backpack Program exists because kids shouldn’t have to go a single day without the food they need to learn and grow. This crucial program is funded entirely by generous donations like yours and the support of our community. Without you, the Weekend Backpack Program doesn’t happen.

More than 1,600 children rely on the Weekend Backpack Program for meals and snacks every weekend of the school year. Your support makes means kids, parents and guardians don’t have to worry about whether they’ll have enough food to last until school on Monday – kids like Harley, whose grandmother recently shared, “I think the Weekend Backpack Program is a blessing because she doesn’t have to worry about getting anything to eat over the weekend, and I appreciate it very much. Thank you.”

With your help, students across southwest Missouri will have food they need to thrive this school year.

Thank you again for being a part of this important initiative!
