Why is Peanut Butter so important?
The BuddyPack program seeks to provide young children in need with easy-to-prepare, nutritious foods. Peanut Butter provides a great shelf-stable source of protein for growing youngsters. CMFB’s goal is to include a jar of Peanut Butter in each BuddyPack once a month. Currently 3,800 elementary school students in our 32-county service area take BuddyPacks home every week.
Why do you need my help?
The Food Bank must purchase the product and it is expensive. Unlike many of the products The Food Bank provides, they cannot buy it in bulk (at lower prices) and have volunteers repackage it. We need individual, sealed jars that students can carry home in backpacks - the ideal size is a 12-18oz. jar.
What can I do?
ICA’s goal is to collect 150 jars of Peanut Butter by the end of February. So whichever your choice, Skippy or Jiff, Chunky or Smooth, spread the word. Please drop off your donation in a collection bin in the lobby of MATC.
