About A FULL SUMMER Snack Pack
In 2024, A FULL SUMMER volunteers packed 9,000 snacks that were used at agencies such as Capital City Youth Services, Big Brother Big Sisters, Big Bend Homeless Coalition, and Good News Ministries.
Each year we welcome individuals and groups of businesses, churches, community groups, family, and groups of friends to form teams to pack together! In addition to packing snacks, funds raised by A FULL SUMMER help support Leon County school food pantries, underwrite the monitoring fees for the Hope 24/7 Food Locker located at Sabal Palm Elementary School, and furnish appliances to school pantries so that they may offer fresh or frozen meat, fruits, and vegetables to the children they serve.
Our fundraising goal this year is $40,000. With those funds, we plan to purchase the snacks we pack, underwrite the monitoring fee for the Hope 24/7 Grocery Locker at Sabal Palm Elementary, and help support pantries in Leon County schools.
And we appreciate donations of any amount!
Thank YOU! Together we are doing something to help food insecure children in our community.

A Full Summer Snack Pack EventOur snack packaging events bring together volunteers to donate time and money to package food for hungry and food insecure children in the Tallahassee and Big Bend area of Florida. Our snacks are nutritious and delicious. And each bag of snacks comes with a handwritten note of encouragement from our volunteers. Every year, volunteers have been able to provide food for thousands of children in our community.

Leon County School Food PantriesDid you know that 40% of children who attend Leon County Schools qualify for free or reduced- price meals? For many of these kids, meals at school are their only dependable source of food. Food pantries ensure children and their families have food at home. Each year, A FULL SUMMER raises funds to assist Leon County school food pantries. We use the funds to purchase pantry food through Second Harvest of the Big Bend and to buy refrigerators and freezers so pantries can offer fresh and frozen produce and meats.
