Conn Cares
Our Conn Cares program builds Thanksgiving food bins for Conn families, coordinates the holiday giving tree program, provides clothing and hygiene products for our students, and supports other needs identified by our school. Conn Cares also coordinates the Junior League of Raleigh's weekly BackPack Buddies program which provides weekend meals and snacks for Conn students in need.
Only have a little amount of time to give?
Help us make a BIG impact with backpack buddies!
Volunteers are needed every Wednesday between 12-1 to pick up and deliver food for our schools “Backpack Buddies” program.
BackPack Buddies is designed to provide children experiencing food insecurity with nutritious, kid-friendly, pre-packed meals for the weekend—when they would not have access to a school’s free lunch and breakfast.
