The Problem

Kewanee is a low-income community that is considered to be a food desert in some census tracts throughout the city. Hunger and food insecurity are two big issues within the community, especially for older adults and young children.

Our Plan

With the holidays and winter coming up, our scouts want to "Pack the Pantry" in Kewanee to help out the community! Our troop plans to match all funds received either with donations or financially.
