  • Skagit Valley Food Co-op 202 South 1st Street Mount Vernon, WA, 98273 United States (map)

Food to Go is a weekend backpack food program serving children in the Anacortes School District. Food to Go provides 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, and 2 dinners, healthy snacks and fresh fruit every Friday to children who are food insecure over the weekends.

Most receive free or reduced breakfast and lunch during the week from the school district.

How Will Your Shopping Trip Support Food to Go?

All donations to Food to Go are used only to purchase food for the children. Food to Go has no paid positions and their yearly goal for fundraising this year is $100,000.00. Their numbers have risen and Food to Go is presently packing 230 bags per week.
