Food Truck Roundup for Blessings in a Backpack
The Louisville Food Truck Association will hold a Food Truck Roundup for Blessings in a Backpack on Saturday, September 15, 2012 from 4:00 pm until 8:00 pm at the Douglas Blvd. Christian Church, 2005 Douglass Boulevard, Louisville, KY. The Roundup features a variety of food trucks and a substantial portion of the proceeds will be donated to Blessings in a Backpack. There is no admission fee.
Food Trucks are all about great food. Blessings in a Backpack provides food to hungry children. The Douglas Blvd. Christian Church has a strong food ministry. The Food Truck Roundup for Blessings in a Backpack is a great collaboration of business, charity and church all focused on feeding hungry people.
Blessings in a Backpack’s mission is to ensure impoverished elementary school children are fed on the weekends throughout the school year. They provide these schoolchildren who are on the federal Free and Reduced Price Meal Program with a backpack of food to take home for 38 weekends during the school year. Backpack food includes easy-to-prepare, ready-to-eat foods, like granola bars, juice boxes, mac and cheese, and oatmeal.
Casual Addiction Unplugged, a Rock/Alternative Cover Band will provide the entertainment. More information on the band can be found at https://www.facebook.com/CasualAddiction.
