The Backpack Program was launched to help fill weekend gaps for hungry children.  The concept is simple:  teachers and school administrators work to enroll children who can benefit in the program at the beginning of the school year. A headcount is submitted to the Arkansas Foodbank, which then provides monthly food deliveries to Langston Elementary. Teachers at Langston organize and store the packages.  Every Friday, packages are inconspicuously placed in the backpacks of recipient children for them to take home.  Portions placed in backpacks are meant to provide three meals for the children on Saturday and Sunday.

Arkansas Hospice

Hospice care actually enables patients to live their last days to the fullest with purpose, dignity, grace, and support. It is about bringing the best in physical, emotional, and spiritual care to those who are facing the challenges of a life-limiting illness and their families. At Arkansas Hospice that is our mission. Plus, as a not-for-profit organization, we believe that fear of costs should never prevent a person from having access to hospice care, and our patients are cared for regardless of their ability to pay.  (501) 748-3333 or (877) 713-2348
