The Ticonderoga Area BackPack Program is one of the area’s favorite charities, and the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation has joined other members of the community in supporting it.
Recently, the well-known charity received $5,000 from the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation. The BackPack Program’s efforts will continue to assist local kids nutrition both during the school year and throughout the summer through its Summer Food Program, which offers free meals when school lunches are not available. This most recent financing ensures this.
The donation is a part of Dunkin’ Donuts’ commitment to giving kids who are battling hunger or illness access to the basic pleasures of childhood. The foundation has given more than $40 million to local and national NGOs since its founding in 2006.
