Food Items
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:
• Tuna, Chicken or Beef (canned) • Oatmeal Packets
• Dinner Mix Boxes • Cold Cereal
• Tuna, Chicken or Beef “Helper” • Boxed 100% Juices
• Chili, Ravioli, Spaghetti, etc • Hot Chocolate, Hot Cider Packets
• Mac & Cheese, Rice-a-Roni • Instant Mashed Potatoes
• Fruit & Pudding Cups • Raisins
• Peanut Butter • Jelly & Jams
• Pasta Sauces • Pasta, Rice & Dried Beans
• Granola bars, Cookie Packs, Popcorn • Top Ramen
• Canned Fruit and Vegetables
For the safety of our students, plastic jars only, please no glass jars
or items past sell-by dates. Also, no economy sizes (too heavy)!
