Backpacks of food help feed hungry kids
Stuffed with canned fruit,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], bread, or maybe some soup, the backpacks are designed to tackle a problem that many Minnesotans don't think about: children who rely on school lunch programs sometimes don't have enough to eat on the weekends.
Today on the MPR News program All Things Considered, we'll run a story about the Rochester program, and about an effort to move beyond the backpack model.
Dan Farm,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a pastor at Autumn Ridge Church in Rochester, jump-started the program after he and another church leader went to Bamber Valley Elementary School to discuss starting a tutoring program.
"As we were waiting there,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I watched a young boy come in who was just in a sweatshirt with holes in it, and he had these tattered tennis shoes on with holes in them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Farm said. "I'm looking at them, and I can see his feet. I can literally see skin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and he's walking through the snow."
After Principal Becky Gerdes arrived, the three began to talk about a tutoring program. Farm couldn't take it.
"Finally I just said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 'You know what,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I can't even talk about this,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],' " Farm recalled. " ' I just saw a little boy out there who's in the middle of this snowstorm in a sweatshirt and tattered shoes.' "
Gerdes told him that many kids needed warmer clothes -- and that some didn't even eat enough over the weekend,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Shortly thereafter, Autumn Ridge and Channel One Food Bank created the backpack program.
Isaac, a fifth grader at Bamber Valley Elementary,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], participates in that backpack program. He's one of the students who has shown improvement - in energy and focus - since the program began.
I talked with Isaac when at the school last week. Most of what he had to say was ordinary fifth grader stuff: He likes the fruit cups, isn't so hot on the bagels and finds the backpacks a bit heavy.
But there was a moment that gave me pause,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
"We're lucky. because some people don't have any food," Isaac said. "Sometimes people in other countries or states,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they have hurricanes and tornadoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and people die or get injured, or they get hungry when the hurricane is over, and they need food."
All from a child who teachers send home with a backpack full of food every weekend,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just in case.
Julie Siple reports on hunger and related issues for Minnesota Public Radio News. MPR is a partner in the Hunger-Free Minnesota project,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which helps fund her reporting.
