Mix 106 Cares for Kids Backpack Drive 2019

Mix 106 Radio’s 7th annual Cares for Kids Backpack Drive is Friday, September 20
6 AM to 6 PM with DJs Billy Jenkins, Charlene Herrera, and Jeff Connell

The Idaho Foodbank’s Backpack program distributes over 63,000 backpacks to school children who need access to nutritious food on the weekends. Every Friday, each participating child receives a backpack with enough food for two breakfasts, two lunches, two dinners and two snacks. Meals consist of nutritious, child-friendly items that are easy to prepare and taste good! As a result of the help they receive through the Backpack program, children come to school Monday morning nourished and ready to learn!
