As part of Hunger Action Month and the launch of their FoodShare program, Starbucks Partners donated their time and energy by volunteering at the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank on September 14, 2018.
Miles Avenue Elementary School in Huntington Park is one of nine under-served schools enrolled in the Food Bank’s BackPack Program. This program is designed to ensure that kids who rely on school meals do not go hungry over the weekend when school meals are not available. Before the weekend, students receive a kit containing enough food for at least six nutritious meals, along with a packet of nutrition information, activities and healthy recipes.
