Many kids eat meals at school during the week but need access to affordable, healthy food on Saturday and Sunday. That’s where Blessings in a Backpack can help! Mount Vernon Community School’s Blessings in a Backpack program in Alexandria, Virginia, provides weekend food for 125 of our students. Blessings in a Backpack is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
