Laguna Middle School Backpack Program

Womenade, under the leadership of Diane McKeague, sends home backpacks of food for 5 Laguna Middle School families each Friday.  Without our support, these students and their families would not have enough to eat over the weekend.

If you would like to volunteer to fill backpacks, please email Diane:  dmckeague@charter.net.  If you would like to donate food, please bring your donations to Laguna, and let the secretary know the items are for Womenade's Backpack Program.  Items need to be light weight for carrying home.

Thank you!
