Giving Tuesday Opportunity for Fillmore Central Backpack Program

Today is Giving Tuesday!!  Please consider making a donation to the Fillmore Central BackPack Program!! Currently we serve 28 families and over 100 students.  The cost to provide a backpack for a family is $350 per year. The food backpacks are filled with non-perishable items as well as vouchers for fresh items such as bread, eggs, meat and milk. Childhood hunger affects many of our students and the backpack program is one way that we can provide food for children during the weekend when school breakfast and lunch is not available to them. In order to sustain our program into the future, we need your support and donations! Donations are tax deductible and can be sent to Fillmore Central Backpack Program 225 N. 17th Street, Geneva, NE 68361 or directed to the Fillmore Central Backpack Program account at the Trust Department at Heartland Bank in Geneva.  Thank you for helping us alleviate childhood hunger in our community!
