The Backwoods Foundation is committed to equal access to services without discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
This commitment applies to all aspects of our work, including the distribution of meal packs, interactions with volunteers, partnerships with schools and community organizations, and all other activities.
Our priority is to ensure that every child in need has access to nutritious meals in a supportive and inclusive environment. We collaborate closely with school administrators to provide our services with the utmost respect for the privacy, dignity, and individual needs of each family.
To protect the privacy of service recipients (children receiving weekly meal packs), The Backwoods Foundation ensures complete anonymity for participating families. Communication with parents and the management of personal information, including a child's eligibility for the Free or Reduced Meal Program, are handled exclusively by school administrators.
Meal packs are distributed discreetly by teachers, either by placing them in students' bags or inviting students to collect them directly. The foundation only receives the total number of meals required for each school and delivers these weekly to the school office for distribution.
