Backpack of Food Program
The backpack of food program serves 5 school districts throughout Wayne County. Each student who participates receives a bag of nonperishable food every Friday throughout the school year to take home for the weekend. We seek volunteers each summer who will make a commitment to pack the bags during the school year. If you are interested in volunteering, click here.
This program is a result of collaboration between the Akron-Canton Regional Food Bank, local schools, DayBreak Community Church, Wooster Church of the Nazarene, and MCA in Fredericksburg. Any organization interested in assisting with the program can contact Pastor Richard Frazier, Executive Director of the WHC, at rfrazier@woosterhopecenter.org
