Food 4 Kids
The James H. Sweat Foundation started participating in the Food 4 Kids program in 2016. Since then we have prepared over 5000 sacks for Columbia County students,
This program was started by Columbia County Connections where Pat Grice, the director, has been wonderful in the work she has been doing.
It’s simple, JHS provides students at 3 schools (Blue Ridge Elementary, Stevens Creek Elementary and Stallings Island Middle) with lunches for the weekend. Lunches Include noodles, cereal, oatmeal, pudding, applesauce, a fruit snack, and Kool-aid Jammers.
We purchase the items to go in the sacks on Tuesday, make the sacks Wednesday nights for Thursday on delivery so that they can go home with the students on Friday. I know for a fact that these Saturday lunches are needed and utilized by those that receive them.
You can help JHS support a school for a week, a month, or any monetary amount you choose to donate. You can help by clicking the donate button below and donating. If you would rather buy the items mentioned above, contact us and we can set up times to pick them up from you. We would love your support in helping us with this program. Thank you!
