For several years now, the Viborg-Hurley PTO has been sponsoring a backpack program. This program is to help students in our district who may face food insecurity on the weekends and over holiday breaks.
Each week this program supplies "backpacks" of non-perishable, easy to prepare food items. The students take home a plastic bag full of food on the last day of school each week.
There are several ways you can get involved:
- If you would like to sign your child(ren) up to receive food through this program please click on the link, fill out the form and send to school with your child. Have them turn the form in to the front office. Backpack Form
- Give a financial contribution toward the program. Monetary donations may be made to the Viborg-Hurley PTO and mailed to the school. V-H School, Attention V-H PTO, PO Box 397, Viborg, SD 57070. Please write in the memo line "Backpack Program"
- Donate food - see the list of possible food donations by clicking on the following link. These donations can be dropped off at Home Town Grocery in Viborg or the front office in the Viborg building. Food Donation List
