Back to School

The Back To School program by King Township Food Bank equips students with essential school supplies. In 2023, the program adeptly handled distribution across Kettleby, King City, and Nobleton centers, catering to various grade levels. The program, deeply rooted in community collaboration, saw an impressive distribution of supplies, distributing more than 100 backpacks filled with age appropriate supplies to students from Junior Kindergarten to Highschool. It underscores a commitment to educational equity, significantly easing the financial strain on families, especially post-pandemic. Leveraging local support and meticulous resource management, the program ensures that the start of the school year is met with readiness and equality, reflecting the community’s shared goal of nurturing young minds.
