IMPACT Meals

Image title

Established in 2016, IMPACT exists to provide “meals at critical times” for Van Buren students who may encounter food deficits at home. The initiative originally
began by providing non-perishable grocery items to participants over extended breaks, including at Thanksgiving, the holidays, and Spring Break. The program now
offers distributions nearly every month to families in need. Funding for IMPACT comes primarily from donor donations.
