Food for Kids …
Get Involved
Bags of Hope seeks to bring hope to the Lake Norman and greater Charlotte area by supplying free weekend food provisions to school children who experience food insecurity.
Packing Events
We pack weekend food bags in bulk. Volunteers gather at "packing events" to pack 100-200 bags at a time. It's a fun way to serve together with friends, church groups, office teams, scout troops, or total strangers (a.k.a. soon-to-be friends)! Follow us on Facebook or subscribe to our newsletter to learn about upcoming events. You'll love serving with us!

Giving back in our community with an organization that cares about their volunteers as much as those they serve has been life-changing.
Bags of Hope Volunteer
Packing bags with other students from different schools allowed me to meet more people with the same goals.
Bags of Hope, Student Volunteer
I love walking into Grand Oak Elementary every week and seeing the nurturing environment there, and knowing that in my small way, I’m helping children to be ready to learn.
