To combat hunger, RAMP provides fresh produce and nutritious, easy to prepare food to those children who have little to no access to food on weekends. For many children, their family's food stamps run out over the last two weeks of the month. When the last of the food is used, missing meals becomes the norm. The last 2 weekends of the month RAMP provides a backpack of food to bring home. This ensures that they have something nutritious to eat before returning to school the following Monday. RAMP currently feeds 350 students in the program, but there is still a huge need for more.
