HELP FEED LOCAL YOUTH
Food Access for All is a subgroup of the Food Partnership Council. Our belief is that everyone is entitled access to nutritious food regardless of income. In an effort to reduce food insecurity in our youth members of this committee teamed up with school administration and formed a weekend meal program for Red Lodge K-8 students called It’s in the Bag!
With generous support from the Red Lodge community and local grocers It’s in the Bag! provides free, easy-to-prepare, nutritionally dense meals for K-8 youth to cover missed meals over the weekend. Each bag contains two breakfasts, lunches and dinners including fresh vegetables and fruit. Fun and informative food and nutrition activity sheets accompany the food as well as simple tips for meal preparation.
