United Way & Partners Providing Meals During Memorial Week
Wednesday, May 27th, 2020
United Way of the Chattahoochee Valley and Feeding the Valley, together with a group of community partners are working together to help meet the nutritional needs of children over Memorial Week while Muscogee County and Russell County School Districts are closed.
Students will receive Buddy Packs on Tuesday and Thursday of this week. Each Buddy Pack will include two days’ worth of kid-friendly food. We will follow the current delivery locations to increase access to students. Meals will be available, through a grab-and-go service, to all children 0-18. Students must be present to receive a meal.

We are partnering with the school districts to ensure this information gets out to parents - we'll use the same communication channels effectively used by the districts to inform parents.
During this difficult time, our utmost priority remains the safety and well-being of the students and volunteers. We ask that all individuals maintain a social distance while waiting in line for their meals. Meals will not be consumed on site.
Partners involved in this effort include Greater Peace Baptist Church, St. Luke United Methodist Church, Boys & Girls Club, Girls Inc, Cascade Hills, Open Door, Salvation Army, Pierce Chapel, YMCA and Evangel Temple.
