Thanks for supporting @ForsythBackpack in 2022 We fed @wsfcs kids on weekends and holidays, stocked food pantries, provided family pantry boxes to fight food insecurity in @CityofWS Story by @Marketplace on how inflation and pandemic impact food insecurity
"Making meaningful, sustainable progress by the end of this decade is doable." 🎧 Check out this @Marketplace interview to hear more from @FeedingAmerica CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot about the ongoing effort to #EndHunger. marketplace.org/2022/12/05/end…
The box boys @ArborAcres have been busy! We are packing 800 🎒 meals today @ForsythBackpack to feed local kids on the weekends @KPSoaringEagles
And that’s a wrap! 800 backpack meals packed today by @ForsythBackpack and our friends and supporters from @ArborAcres We purchase food and pack meals to nourish local kids #FeedingtheFuture
.@ForsythBackpack is a grateful partner with @ArborAcres packing backpacks 🎒 to feed local food insecure children in Forsyth County NC #GivingBack
Second packing 🎒 shift @ArborAcres Wonderful folks helping local kids with @ForsythBackpack
First shift finished @ArborAcres 64 backpacks 🎒 heading to summer schools @wsfcs Feeding the Future of Forsyth County @ForsythBackpack
We are delighted to partner with @ArborAcres to feed kids in #Forsyth County @CityofWS @ForsythBackpack
We are packing backpacks🎒 with #ArborAcres Love to be back packing and feeding local kids @ForsythBackpack @ArborAcres
National #ChildNutrition waivers made it possible for schools and local organizations to adapt their programs so they could still reach kids with the food they need. But without intervention, those waivers will expire. Learn more and take action: bit.ly/3HYPrXH

Ten years! Coming soon @ForsythBackpack
The ten year anniversary of @ForsythBackpack is approaching and we are planning a celebration and rebrand (we do much more than backpacks 🎒) any #nonprofit folks with advice or guidance? @SarahinWSNC @WakeForestBiz @PEAncorg
The children and families we serve will be helped by the #ChildTaxCut as child poverty is reduced @hunger
🚨 The expanded & strengthened #ChildTaxCredit is here to 𝙘𝙪𝙩 𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙙 𝙥𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙮 *𝙞𝙣 𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙛*. ✴️ In our 🆕 blog, learn more about this MAJOR win for families, & how Congress can it permanent. bit.ly/3i2QFpe
The pandemic forced families to make many tough choices in order to survive. For many people that meant choosing between necessities, like food, childcare, utilities or transportation. Read more from @SELFmagazine about the challenges our neighbors face: bit.ly/3yPXKA6
29M kids who receive free & reduced-price school meals face hunger during the summer months. Fighting hunger is a joint effort that includes putting policies in action. We applaud @POTUS' #AmericanFamiliesPlan that includes specific investments to help solve child summer hunger.
"What the pandemic showed was how deeply unjust and nonfunctional many parts of our society are...With schools closed, it suddenly became apparent how many children rely on schools for food." @ForsythBackpack continues to feed hungry children in and out of school
🍞 Giving families in need more food dollars is hunger relief, economic stimulus, & a health booster, all in one. 📣 Congress: Families are counting on you to #BoostSNAPNow in #COVIDRelief to provide extra food money for as long as #COVID19 is a threat & the economy is stalled.
Continuing to feed children at our partner @wsfcs programs, local @YMCAofNWNC, with our friends @Hope_WS, through @CityofWS testing and health locations and more! Very nimble #nonprofit @ForsythBackpack working hard to feed our future @FeedingAmerica @Network4Good @nokidhungry
Good news! Thanks to all working to feed the future @FeedingAmerica @hunger @ForsythBackpack
🎉 BREAKING: 2 harmful rules that would have stripped SNAP food assistance for millions of families — the Categorical Eligibility and SUA rules — have been withdrawn by USDA! Thanks to all of you for fighting to keep #HandsOffSNAP! (1/3)
At @ForsythBackpack we feed kids in #WinstonSalem @wsfcs at schools, camps, health centers and these days any community partners that can help with logistics Support your local food bank & @hunger @FeedingAmerica @nwncfoodbank So much need, 1/6 of all kids thanks @PreetBharara
Question: Which in your view are the best hunger and food-insecurity groups worth supporting during the pandemic? I like @whyhunger & @WCKitchen. Others?
Happy Holidays from @ForsythBackpack and best wishes for a happy & healthy New Year
