Deer Park ISD district representatives smiled when they received this month’s Snack Attack Pack assembly, which included 430 meals.
Adult volunteers shop for the food —a microwaveable meal, a salty and sweet snack, and a drink —and deliver it to the chapter’s award-winning resale shop for assembly. Once packaged, it is loaded into a designated volunteer’s vehicle and taken to the specific school district served.
Two weeks prior, Assisteens® labeled each snack sack and counted the spoons and napkins included with the food.
The final result is that students facing food scarcity outside of school hours are given a nutritional boost.
