Back Pack Program.
The Back Pack Program is operative during the school year. Through this effort we prepare, on Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m., 115 back packs with food and necessities which are then given to children in need at the Alan Bowden School. Resources for the back packs are provided through special fund raising efforts, our annual pumpkin patch, and both private and corporate gifts. We always need additional workers to help us prepare the back packs on Sunday morning.
