Members of the Health Careers Club at South Hills hosted their 3rd annual Anti-Hunger Backpack Filling Day in collaboration with the YMCA of Centre County Anti-Hunger Program.

Students/Members donated ready-to-make food items for community Elementary students, filled 500 bags of food to send home with these children, and donated $150 from the HCC Fund, which the club has done fundraisers throughout the year to raise money to donate to charities of their choice.

If you want to learn more about this program or how you can help, read the message below from their program director Mel Curtis.

"The school-age weekend food Backpack Program has surpassed 2,000 bags per week, and we get additional students each week.

The Veterans MilitaryShare Program, launched in January 2025, is a great way to give back to those who put their lives on hold to defend our country. In January 2025, we had 24 families registered, and as of March 2026, we have 378.

We launched a program, “Our House to Your House” at our YMCA Branches. These are pantries that, if a family is running out of food, they can stop at the YMCA so they have food for their family.

The above programs are supported through donations only. On average, monthly, we are spending $27,500.00, so others don’t go without food. Without the support of our community, programs like these wouldn’t be happening. I would ask that you consider assisting us with a financial donation. As a 501(C) (3), there are tax benefits to you.

Volunteers are extremely important, and they are the reason for successful programs. At the YMCA of Centre County Backpack and Anti-Hunger Program."
