BDFRC offers easy, healthy foods in backpack programs for kids in need
If you have a few extra dollars you might want to donate it the Battlefords District Food and Resource Centre (BDFRC) to help kids in needy families.
Executive Director Erin Katerynych said the BDFRC offers two programs for kids – one for the summer and another for the school year.
The school-year program called Food For Kids will start up again as children and teens head back to the classroom in September.
We want to make sure these kids who go to food-insecure homes on the weekend have food they can eat on their own, any child-friendly food,” Katerynych said.
