HELPING HUNGRY KIDS

of Northern Virginia

Hundreds of children in Northern Virginia need food every year. Help us provide them enough to eat.

Update: December, 2021

Helping Hungry Kids (HHK) has moved!

HHK has secured donated space from Northern Virginia Hebrew Congregation (NVHC). We are grateful to NVHC for helping us continue our mission of feeding students in need.

​

Currently, we are packing 450 bags/week for eight local elementary schools. We pack bags on Wednesday mornings at NVHC from 10:30 am-12 pm. Contact us at HHK@corefoundation.org if you would like to help.

​

We are so thankful to our generous supporters, as we could not be doing this without you! If you would like to help, please consider the following:

No donation is too small!

Connie Laurent-Roy and Sandy Amato had a vision that began in a basement in Reston, Virginia in 2009. They knew not every child in Fairfax county had enough food on weekends and during school breaks. So they created Helping Hungry Kids (HHK) of Northern Virginia to serve the community.

​

For more than 10 years, HHK has provided packs to local elementary school children who lack enough food. Each pack costs about $6 and contains enough food for 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners, and 2-3 snacks. Pantry items include fruit cups, applesauce, pudding, cereal, soup, mac n' cheese, and milk.​

ABOUT US

Our goal is to provide packs to local elementary school children who lack enough food on weekends and during breaks.

​We distribute more than 13,000 food packs each school year to children at area elementary schools including:

• Aldrin

• Armstrong

• Clearview

• Cub Run

• Dogwood

• Forest Edge

• Hunters Woods
