Thank you for your past support of Marshall Food4Kids.

We recently completed our 13th year of providing nutritious weekly snacks to children in our community during the school year. This year, we are serving an average of 780 students each week and have already provided more than 25,000 supplemental food bags to help reduce food insecurity for local children.

The need continues to grow.

To focus our limited resources on younger students, we made the difficult decision to discontinue service for 7th and 8th graders. Restoring service for those students remains an immediate priority. At the same time, rising food costs and the loss of a major grant have made additional funding more critical than ever.

Families continue to tell us how much this program matters.

Behind every weekly food bag is a dedicated team of volunteers. Each month, volunteers contribute more than 100 hours to purchase and pack food, coordinate groups, deliver to schools, and support grants and fundraising. Many serve every week, and some have been with us since the beginning. Because of them, we are able to pack and deliver nearly five dozen totes to five schools each week.

Financial support from individuals, organizations, churches, foundations, businesses, and employee groups is essential to sustain Marshall Food4Kids.

We humbly ask you to consider donating to our 2026 Sponsor A Child Campaign, running June 15 through July 15.

A gift of $175 sponsors one child for a full school year, and any amount helps us continue serving children in Marshall Public Schools, the alternative high school, and Head Start.
