Buddy Backpacks


The Buddy Backpacks program by United Way of Northeastern Minnesota offers vital support to children at risk of hunger during weekends and school holidays. Each child receives a backpack filled with nutritious, nonperishable food items, ensuring they have enough to eat when school meals are not available. Serving over 1,000 children across the Iron Range and Koochiching County, the program aims to alleviate weekend hunger, enabling children to return to school ready to learn and succeed.
