BOKS
The program is coming back to Hamilton and will be starting next month. Please refer to the flyer sent home with your child last Tuesday regarding registration. They can only take a limited number of students due to staffing issues, so they will accept students in order of registration.
If you are a Hamilton community member interested in volunteering for the program, please also reach out as the more volunteers committed, the more students will be given the opportunity.
Weymouth Food Pantry Backpack Program - PLEASE FILL OUT AGAIN THIS YEAR
The Weymouth Food Pantry has partnered with Weymouth Public Schools to continue the Backpack Program, which provides food to participating students weekly to meet their nutritional needs over the weekend. Bags include items such as juice boxes, granola bars, mac & cheese cups, goldfish crackers, and milk. The menu will vary weekly.
School staff and volunteers will prepare a bag of food for each child and connect it to the student by Friday afternoon. These bags are free, open to all students, and sponsored by the Weymouth Food Pantry.
Please complete the Google Form below by Friday, 9/27/24 if your child would benefit from additional food over the weekends. All families are required to re-sign up annually to update and confirm any allergies and dietary needs.
Sign-Up Here!
Weymouth residents are also encouraged to check out WFP’s pop-up pantry schedule here: Weymouth Food Pantry Calendar
