The bags are given by the schools every Friday during the school year to children who are homeless or from low-income backgrounds.
As the schools have rebounded from COVID-19 challenges, so has our Snack Attack program. We currently serve 14 schools and a community preschool center. The needs are great to help fight hunger in our community, and Assistance League of Riverside is working every day to meet this challenge.
We started the school year delivering approximately 860 bags per week, but as needs grew, we increased that to 913 bags per week. In the 2024-2025 school year, we provided close to 32,000 Snack Bags to children in need and anticipate even more for this year!
