Snack bags are our primary method of feeding kids in our community. What is a Snack Bag?
Snack Bags are actual bags (lunch bag, grocery bag, ziploc bag) filled with the following: ● A drink (water bottle, juice box, protein drink) ● A fruit (fruit cups or applesauce with a spoon) ● A protein (cheese crackers, single serving peanut butter, protein bar, meat stick, mac cheese cups) ● A snack (goldfish, pretzels, granola bar, gummies, crackers) ● A sweet treat (candy, cookies) ● Optional- A small handwritten note and/or coloring sheet & crayons
We accept as as many or as few snack bags as you wish to donate but on average our volunteers donate ~12-18 snack bags at a time. You can put all the snack bags in a bigger bag or a small box to drop them off to us – whatever is easiest for you!
We collect every first and third Wednesday of every month in the parking lot of Double Oak Town Hall.
*Please contact us at jellybeansfoodforkids@gmail.com if you want to contribute but can’t make it during our regular collection times. We are happy to make alternative arrangements!
**We do NOT collect when LISD closes for inclement weather situations.
