Houston-based Webbies are giving back this holiday season! On Saturday, December 2nd, 2017, from 0800 to 1200, 19 members of the Webb Alumni Family volunteered at the Houston Food Bank. The volunteer event was organized by Erin McElroy ’15.
The majority of the group was involved with the Houston Food Bank Backpack Buddy program. The Backpack Buddy program works to fill that gap by providing nutritious, child-friendly food for school children to take home over the weekend.
Through the Backpack Buddy program, the Houston Food Bank, works in partnership with participating schools, schools district delivery sites, and other community partners, to ensure that the food sacks are distributed to children on every Friday during the school year.
