Raise the Bar Against Hunger
Host a Protein Bar Drive
Every weekend, Resurrection provides an average of 3,000 protein bars through our Backpacks for Hunger program. These simple snacks ensure that children return to school on Monday mornings fueled, focused, and ready to learn. For many kids, this is the difference between hunger and hope.
How You Can Help
1. Host a Protein Bar Drive
Collect kid-friendly protein bars that are nutritious, filling, and easy for children to enjoy. Great examples include:
- Nature Valley
- Clif Bars
- Kind Bars
- Other similar brands that are high in protein, individually wrapped, and that kids would enjoy…think peanut butter, granola, chocolate chips etc…!!
Bring your donations to any Resurrection location.
2. Spread the Word
After worship, stop by our table to pick up a packet of door hangers. By distributing these in your neighborhood, you extend the reach of this ministry and invite others to join the cause. Door-hanger packets are available at every Resurrection location.
