The Backpack Program is a component of the Kids Cafe program. In the Backpack Program, a backpack full of nutritious, ready to eat or easy to prepare foods is sent home on weekends and holidays with children at risk of hunger. Backpacks include foods such as peanut butter, tuna or chicken, breakfast bars, macaroni and cheese, soup, canned fruit, raisins and pudding cups. Kids Cafe staffs say the children often tell them this is the only food in the house for the entire weekend.
