School Pantry
(Keiki Backpacks)
The School Pantry/Keiki Backpack program provides nutritional supplements to low-income elementary school students at Community Eligible Provision (CEP) schools where 25% or more of students are automatically qualified for free meals. School pantries provide access to food at school that students may take home, and keiki backpacks send home food over long breaks or holidays.
