River Valley Food 4 Kids

River Valley Food 4 Kids works to reduce childhood hunger in the Arkansas River Valley through community-supported food assistance. Its programs help children access nutritious, kid-friendly foods when school meals are unavailable.

Services include a school-year Weekend Backpack Program, a summer food program with weekly meal kits, and a Pantry Program in Russellville that provides individual snack bags along with household staples such as protein, fresh produce, dairy, and cereal. Holiday Helper also provides food assistance during the school holiday break.

Program details and registration information may change, so visit the official River Valley Food 4 Kids website for current guidance. Families seeking broader support can also review NHREA’s Arkansas assistance resources and federal assistance resources.
