About Us

The Weekend Bag Program Inc. is a kid founded and run 501(c)3 nonprofit created to provide students going home from school over the weekend with food and hygiene they otherwise wouldn’t have. The program runs the full 10-month school year and the students on the program receive a Weekend Bag each week. The program is designed to be anonymous so as not to add any additional stress on the student. The Weekend Bag Program Inc. Team has the school administration identify a school liaison to work with The Weekend Bag Program team, the school liaison identifies which students would benefit most from receiving a Weekend Bag and then lets The Weekend Bag Team know how many bags it would need. All changes work through the Weekend Bag Program Team and the school liaison. The Program has two types of bags on designed for our homeless students (who either go to shelter or foster care after school) and a full food and hygiene bag. The bags are delivered to the schools each week by The Weekend Bag Program Inc. Team Volunteers. The bags or left with the school liaisons to distribute to the students participating in the program
