Winter Break Fill-A-Bag or Fund-A-Bag Programs

The Fuel Up at PHS food program provides backpacks of food to food insecure PHS students to meet their nutritional needs during weekends and breaks. Winter Break is coming and we could use your help with our Fill-A-Bag and Fund-A-Bag programs!

If you Fill-A-Bag, (or 2 or 3!) we provide a list of shelf-stable items and ask you to shop for those items for a specific (unnamed) child. Many of our previous Fill-A-Bag sponsors have said that this project is very meaningful for their families! Sign up here no later than Friday, December 6th so we know a child is covered, and we'll send you complete details and instructions so you can deliver your bag to us in the PHS lobby by 10am on Friday, December 13th.

If you Fund-A-Bag, (or 2 or 3!) you donate the amount of money it costs to purchase the items needed to fill the bag ($60), and we do the shopping for you. You can donate online here (credit cards accepted), send a check in your child's PHS folder, drop a check at the PHS front office or get it to us in the mail no later than Friday, December 6th! Please make checks payable to Fuel Up at PHS. (Please be aware that we seek to cover the bags using Fill-A-Bag first as it decreases the workload on our Volunteers. If all or part of the students are covered via Fill-A-Bag, this money will then go to adding produce and perishables to the Spring Break bags. Any remaining money will be applied to regular year round backpack fulfillment.)

We thank you for your consideration and wish you a very holiday season!
