Kids Food Basket Brown Bag Challenge
Kids Food Basket
Add a touch of love to our Sack Suppers this September! Sack Suppers are a nutritious, ready-to-eat meal delivered right to a child’s school or distribution site, ensuring children have access to the healthy food they need to thrive.
What you’ll need:
- Brown or white 6 or 8 lb. or size extra-large paper sacks work best.
- Crayons or markers.
- Refrain from using paint, glitter, feathers or stickers, as they can come off in the food.
- Please keep in mind that many Sack Suppers will be going to public schools and therefore cannot contain religious messages.
Brown Bag Decorating Day Pop-Up Event
Join local artists, community leaders, and volunteers as we transform Sack Supper bags into joyous works of art for West Michigan children! Local food vendors will be on-site to fuel your creativity! Light refreshments will also be provided.
When: Thursday, September 28, 2023
Where: Kids’ Food Basket – Kent County (1300 Plymouth Ave. NE, Grand Rapids)
When: 12 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Cost: Free to attend! Food will need to be purchased by the attendee.
