Feed Kids Right Now Backpack Program

Our Feed Kids Right Now backpack program feeds more than 1600 children in 52 schools across Central Texas EVERY WEEK!


Each child receives a backpack filled with 5 meals plus snacks to eat throughout the weekend.  


Where we've come from and where we're headed!

Our Founder gave this short pitch to the Chick Fil A Global Leadership Executive Team in May '26.


It outlines our next steps for closing the gap between the needs in our community we are already meeting and the needs that are still unmet.

Feeding kids matters!

What teachers are saying:

These results were reported to us from our '25-'26 end-of-year Feed Kids Right Now survey given to educators at our partner schools. 

FEED KIDS RIGHT NOW

Over the past year, we have provided nearly 300,000 meals to families in Central Texas through our Feed Kids Right Now backpack programs. We want to increase that by 25% or more this year. 

Child nutrition is not just a problem in developing nations. Texas is the state with the second highest rate of residents facing hunger with more than 1.3 million of those residents being children. 23% of children in Central Texas don't have enough to eat.  

Our food security programs fill food gaps for children over weekends and school breaks, a time when children may not have access to food or enough food.  

Donate - $5 will provide a weekend of food to 1 child!

 Ancora is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are considered charitable contributions and 100% tax-deductible.

A $5 DONATION WILL PROVIDE A CHILD A BACKPACK BAG = FOOD FOR AN ENTIRE WEEKEND

Food programs that help fill food gaps, not only reduce child hunger but actually improve school attendance and academic performance.

Serving Texas

Making a Difference in a Child’s Life One Meal at a Time

All of this has been made possible with the help of our volunteers and donors, who have donated hours of their time and money to feed the kids in Central Texas. 


Our team spends over 60+ hours a month meal prepping and delivering backpacks and relies heavily on donations from our community to supply as many meals as we can. 


Since July 2020, we have provided more than 1.1 MILLION meals to children and families from Central Texas to Central America!

Volunteer

Join us – we have weekly volunteer opportunities during the school year and throughout the summer. 

Donate

Every dollar makes a difference – $5 can help supply a weekend’s worth of food to a child in Central Texas.
