The Backpack Program

The Backpack Program is dedicated to alleviating food insecurity among children in Fruita, CO, by providing them with weekly bags filled with nutritious, non-perishable food items. Our mission is to ensure that every child in Mesa County has access to essential food assistance when they need it most. We believe that no child should go hungry, and our commitment to supporting the community drives us to distribute these crucial supplies to families in need. We welcome anyone seeking food support for their children to reach out and learn more about how we can help.
