Food4Kids 

Kids that are not hungry do better in school.  Hungry children struggle academically, have behavioral or emotional issues, more absenteeism, and poorer overall health.

The Food4Kids program provides food by Fridays to identified students who need extra food over the weekend. The food bags contain two breakfast, lunch, and dinner items; along with two drinks. The nutritional food helps students stay nourished and come back to school on Monday ready to learn.  

​

This program also provides food for local kids during the summer months.

Children served in the following schools:  Emerald Hills Elementary, Bonney Lake Elementary, Victor Falls Elementary, Liberty Ridge Elementary, Donald Eismann Elementary, Tehaleh Heights Elementary, Lakeridge Middle School, Mountain View Middle School, and Bonney Lake High School
