- Support vulnerable youth and help create a brighter future for all
The Kid Pack & Back2School Program by the Self Reliance Empowerment Foundation (SREF) is designed to support children at risk of hunger and ensure they are fully equipped to excel in school. This initiative provides essential resources to children from underserved communities, helping them stay healthy, nourished, and prepared for academic success.
Kid Pack: Nutrition for the Weekend
For many children, weekends can be challenging due to food insecurity in their homes. The Kid Pack is a specially curated package of kid-friendly, nutritious food that provides a vital source of nourishment over the weekend during the school year.
Every Friday, participating children receive a Kid Pack to take home, ensuring they have access to wholesome meals and snacks until they return to school. This program fills the nutrition gap that some children face during weekends, empowering them to focus and thrive in their education.
