Thanks to the amazing support of our volunteers, the community, local companies and Rolesville Baptist Church, North East Wake Backpack Buddies was able to expand our program and provide bags for Richland Creek Elementary School. This brings our total number of schools to 7, and our program provides food for the weekend for 159 children.

We would like to thank Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Century Link and ABB for their recent donations of time and money to support our program. Click here to learn more.
