Taco Bell is teaming up with the Kansas Food Bank’s Food 4 Kids Program to help chronically hungry children.
Every Friday during the school year, the Kansas Food Bank provides backpacks of food for children who don’t get enough to eat at home on the weekends.
From March 18 through March 31, participating Taco Bell restaurants across Kansas, including the three in Salina (located at 1700 West Crawford Street, 1040 East Iron Avenue, and 2305 South Ninth), will ask customers to help support the Food 4 Kids program by rounding up their purchase. Additionally, when you round up, you'll get a free taco on your next visit, according to information from the Kansas Food Bank.
Currently, the Food 4 Kids Backpack Program serves more than 6,000 kids across Kansas. In Salina, 200 children are served by the program.
"Your change matters. If you would like to help chronically hungry children, go to your local Taco Bell to donate from March 18th through March 31th and become a Child Hunger Hero!" Kansas Food Bank noted.
