Teller Elementary Backpack Families program needs your help.
Teller Elementary Food Backpack Program
Two years ago, Teller Elementary realized that it had hungry students in its classrooms and started a “backpack for families” program which allowed them to feed 40 people each week and Congress Park Neighbors made a donation to help.
Through your generous support Teller Backpack Friends hopes to feed up to 80 people a week, allowing students to concentrate on studies instead of a growling stomach.
You can help by:
Donating to Congress Park Neighbors Teller Back Pack Pay Pal site.
Starting now thru November ,Congress Park Neighbors will match each dollar up to the first $300 that is received. Please note that we are unable to match recurring donations. Please go here to donate.
You do not have to have a Pay Pal account to pay with your credit card.
Contact cpnboard@congressparkneighbors.org for questions.

- Donating to the Teller Backpack Friends fund. $20 = 330 lbs of food for Teller students
