Unfortunately, one in five children throughout the Lowcountry experiences food insecurity and hunger. Through Chefs’ Feast proceeds and from community partners, the Lowcountry Food Bank distributed in 2020 almost 100,000 BackPack Buddies bags to provide children food to take home on the weekends. In addition, the LCFB distributed 7,500 School Pantry food boxes to partner schools for students and their families. Through our Summer Meals program, in addition to a free, nutritious meal, LCFB distributed more than 5,000 pounds of fresh produce to children and their families on John’s Island.
“We are grateful to our community for the support we have received over the years for Chefs’ Feast ,” said Nick Osborne, Lowcountry Food Bank President and CEO. “As we plan our very first virtual Chefs’ Feast event, we look forward to amazing participation so we can continue to fight childhood hunger and ensure that our food insecure children across the Lowcountry continue to have access to healthy food.”
