our story
our story
create weekend
food security
In Bexar County alone, over 120,000 children are considered to be food insecure. Of those, it is estimated that 10-20% actually deal with chronic hunger (i.e. they lack adequate nutrition to lead a healthy, productive life). Although Federal Nutrition programs provide meals for students during the school week, weekends can be especially challenging for these children.
Snack Pak 4 Kids was created to provide weekend food supplements to students who are identified by their teachers, creating food SECURITY for them over the weekend. With the support of partners, donors and volunteers of all ages, Snack Pak 4 Kids San Antonio works hard to be a learning enhancement tool for these kids, solving their weekend hunger issue so they can learn during the school week.

Solving weekend hunger is accomplished when a community cares enough to make it a priority. Our PARTNERS do just that. They get it.
With contributions of time, talent and resources. they accept the responsibility for assuring our schools and the children we serve are supported by the Snack Pak 4 Kids SA program.
Being a SP4KSA partner is a commitment, but our partners will be glad to share their own stories of how they are personally blessed by being part of this incredible volunteer movement to remove the barrier of hunger from a child’s ability to learn.
