Last Spring, we surveyed the teachers, counselors, and social workers who administer our Weekend Bag and Snack Bin programs at Minnetonka and Hopkins schools. Here are some of their responses.

"The students have shared that these weekend bags provide assurance and peace of mind that they will have access to food no matter what."

-- Tanglen Elementary Social Worker

"Many of our students express gratitude for these snacks every week since they do not have much access to food at home."

-- Eisenhower Elementary Staff Member

"We have a few children who regularly come to school without breakfast. Our district does not supply breakfast, so I rely on the ICA snacks to help fill those needs."

-- Clear Springs Elementary Social Worker
