Welcome to Backpack Society
Where happy hearts and bright futures start with full bellies

At Backpack Society we're collecting food donations &
raising funds for students who are struggling with food insecurity.

 
We partner with schools in Douglas County, Littleton & Englewood School Districts to reach students in need.

We are a 100% community supported nonprofit based in Highlands Ranch.

WHY WE DO IT

The most at-risk students for food insecurity are also the ones who are most affected by the achievement gap and poor academic outcomes that can have lifelong effects. By providing weekend food, we hope students will be well fed over the weekend and can come in Monday mornings, ready to learn.

Our Mission....​​​

At Backpack Society, we are driven by a single goal; to remove food insecurity as an obstacle for children so they can grow, learn, and thrive. 

​

Providing food to kids on weekend & breaks, when they don't have access to it at school.
