Potsdam Snack Pack Program

The Potsdam Snack Pack Program is currently providing a minimum of eight non-perishable snacks to over 160 Potsdam Central School District students per week. Founded in 2016 by community member Laurell Brault, the program is operated out of New Hope Community Church in Potsdam. The names of the students receiving the snacks are confidential and not released to the program coordinator or other volunteers. If you have a child who may be eligible to receive a snack pack, please contact the school counselor.
