Make and Donate Snack Packs for School Kids!
Gather your family, friends, or co-workers and host a snack packing party for The Open Door. We are in need of pre-packed snack packs for children throughout the year with the highest need in March, May-July, and November.
Snack packs provide kids with extra food support to help them stay focused and energized during the school day or while on school breaks.
It’s easy as 1-2-3! Follow these easy steps or download a printable flyer.
- Purchase kid-friendly snacks: granola or fruit bars, fruit cups (applesauce or cut fruit), juice boxes, microwave mac and cheese, instant oatmeal packets, snack-sized Goldfish or pretzels, protein (beef jerky, meat sticks).
- Pack 5-7 snacks into clear plastic (quart or gallon size) or reusable bags (please do not put notes inside bags when packing).
- Drop-off pre-packed bags at: 3000 Ames Crossing Rd, Suite 100, Eagan 55121
Schedule online your drop-off day and time (50 snack pack bags or more).
