The Bremerton Backpack Brigade fills each Backpack/"Take Home" Bag with kid-friendly, shelf-stable food, including fresh fruit, milk and vegetables. 

​

It costs $10 to $14 per week for each bag. Donations of non-perishable foods help to lower that cost. 

 

Donations of dollars allow us to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables and milk each week, fill large boxes of food at school breaks and supplement non-perishables when pantry supplies run low. 

 

If you would like to donate food items, please choose from the list below:
