The Brazos Valley Food Bank partners with Middle and High Schools to provide low-income students and their families with a pantry where they can receive food as needed throughout the school year. As a School-Based Food Pantry Partner Site, you will work alongside the Brazos Valley Food Bank to help address childhood and adolescent hunger at your school.
Brazos Valley Food Bank:
- Acquires food for the School-Based Pantry Program
- Delivers food to School-Based Pantry partners
- Offers training and program support to School-Based Pantry partners
School-Based Food Pantry Partners:
- Safely store, inventory and pack food and hygiene items
- Ensure the participation of their school community
- Distribute discreetly to students and their families during regular hours at least once monthly
- Securely store program information and reports that include identifying information.
Pantries are a more effective intervention for older school populations—Intermediate, Middle and High Schools. They must serve students and their families who are eligible at least once each month during the school year.
