School Meal/Snack Program
The School Meal/Snack Program, which we launched in January 2016, stands as one of our most celebrated initiatives.
Background and Program Creation
There is no reason for any of our youth to go hungry in our community.

Starfish Backpack Program
The Friends In Need Food Bank is a proud partner of the Ridge Meadows Starfish Pack Program
Many students across the province rely on school breakfast and lunch programs to fill their tummy’s on school days. When it comes to the weekend, they don’t have the food they need. Starfish Pack was designed to help change that. Starfish provides packs of 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners, and snacks to hungry students each weekend of the school year.
Operated by the MeadowRidge Rotary Club the Starfish Pack Program provides a total of 302 packs per week to 25 schools in School District 42.
