Berea Elks #1815 Help Fight Youth Hunger
Members and familes of Berea Elks Lodge #1815 volunteered at the Cleveland Food Bank assembling “backpacks” of food to be distributed to kids across NE Ohio struggling to get the nutrition they need on a daily basis in a safe and confidential way through after school programs and libraries.
More than 2,100 backpacks were assembled during the event. Nearly 1 in 6 people in our community are food insecure, meaning they don’t know where their next meal will come from. This program helps to fill gaps for families where needed.
