The Food Bank of Eastern Michigan held its 4th Annual BackPack Night Fundraiser on Thursday, March 5 at the Holiday Inn-Gateway Center. The BackPack Program provides kids at risk of hunger with a backpack full of nutritious food each weekend throughout the school year.
For 100 years, Whaley Children’s Center has been a place where children find safety, stability, and hope. As the Flint-based nonprofit celebrates its centennial in 2026, the organization is reflecting on a century of service while continuing to evolve to meet the changing needs of Michigan’s most vulnerable youth.
