JLL supports the Blessings in a Backpack program, which provides six meals to school children on weekends - three meals each day, Saturday and Sunday. Approximately 60% of students in Louisville public schools are on the Federally-funded Free or Reduced Meal Program at their school, but often go hungry on the weekends. Blessings in a Backpack fills that void and has demonstrated dramatic learning and behavioral improvements. Learn more about the program here.
