Fall Creek Junior High - National Junior Honor Students
So excited to announce we are now partnering with Durbin Elementary School. This brings our school total up to 13 schools in the HSE School District. With the addition of their students we now are able to help close to 300 students. WOW!
Thought I would share part of an email I received yesterday from one of my schools. So thankful for everyone who helps me out with Indy Snack Attack. We are making a huge difference in these kids lives!
"Kind of touching, but a young boy came down and asked how his friend could start to get the snack bags too. I told him I would send the form home to get parents’ permission. The Dad returned it last week, too late for last week’s bags. Yesterday I put the bags in the lockers and this morning, the young boy return to me and said that his friend did not get a bag this week. Kind of a neat thing when they look out for each other and appreciate them! Can’t say thank you enough for helping these kids!"
Well it's that time of year...Back To School. Hope you all had a great summer!

Just wanted to let you know how the school year ended up. We ended the school year serving 9 schools and 150 kids. Its just amazing how this program is growing! Its disheartening to know that there are so many kids in need but I am happy at the same time that we can help them out! Next school year we are hoping to add add another elementary school and HSE High School. So please keep the donations coming!!!
Here is a current list of schools we help

Here are the final stats for the 2013-2014 school year. We ended the school year with 7 schools and roughly 100 kids in the program. We passed out over 4000 bags. This included bags during school and breaks. This also means we passed out over 36,000 snacks. Whew! Thanks to everyone who donated and volunteered to fill bags! We could not do it without your help!!!
