Feed Northland Kids provides consistent access to wholesome, everyday food for families with school-aged children in Clay and Platte Counties. We serve entire families with our Community Food Kits, which feature fresh produce, frozen meats, and non-perishable staples. And we stock School Pantries with ready-to-eat food, snacks, and items to take home for family meals. More than 12,000 children in our counties experience food insecurity. Your support helps us provide them access to the nourishment they need to grow, learn, and thrive.
