GUILFORD BACKPACK MINISTRY
WORKING TO REDUCE STUDENT HUNGER IN
NORTHERN & NORTHWEST GUILFORD COUNTY SCHOOLS SINCE 2010
$500 goes a long way...
That's the magic number that
closes the weekend food gap
for just one student in our community
for an entire school year.
​
But we gladly accept monetary
donations of any size!
​
Our organization is a non-profit 501(c)3
so your donation is
fully tax-deductible.
​
Make an online donation today
or mail a check payable to:
ORMC - Backpacks
P.O. Box 538
Oak Ridge, NC 27310
​
Please include your email address and
phone number with your donation.
We Take Non-Perishables of All Kinds!
We accept food donations year round!
