Snack It Forward: Filling the Gaps with Nutrition and Kindness

At Nourish Meals on Wheels, we know that hunger doesn’t always align perfectly with mealtimes. That’s why our Snack It Forward program delivers a little something extra... bags filled with healthy, shelf-stable snacks to enjoy between meals. These thoughtful packs might include items like granola bars, fruit cups, crackers, or trail mix, offering both nourishment and comfort.
For many of our clients, these snack bags are more than a treat. They provide reassurance that there’s always something to eat, and a reminder that their community cares.
Recently, groups from Boys Team Charity, Advent Health Parker, Auric Capital Partners, and Quorum Software teamed up with us to assemble and deliver hundreds of snack packs. For clients, it meant extra nutrition and kindness. For volunteers, it was a simple, team-building project that turned into a deeply meaningful experience.
Looking for your next team project? Host a Snack It Forward event with your company, church, community group, or family. It’s easy, impactful, and fun. Learn how to get involved here.
