Did you know that hundreds of Pasco County children go without food on the weekends?

With your help, we can make sure no child goes without food. Children need food to survive and to do well in school. Children are our future so together, let's invest in our future!

Join us as we fight childhood hunger. On October 19, 2024, at 10 AM, come to Sims Park for "Pack the Park for Pack A Sack" – an event raising funds to combat childhood hunger in Pasco County.

Over 1,500 children receive nutritious weekend meals through One Community Now. 51.87% of Pasco County children qualify for free or reduced-price meals, emphasizing the urgency of our cause. Your support at the event directly helps the Pack A Sack 4 Kids program, ensuring kids have food over the weekend.

Enjoy a family-friendly festival with free activities while making a meaningful impact. Together, let's ensure no child goes hungry in Pasco County.
