Drive to Feed Kids 2025
Join The Fight Against Childhood Hunger
This August, JDH and Nutra Blend are teaming up to support the Drive to Feed Kids campaign with their annual online auction event—raising critical funds for the SmartPack program at Foodlink for Tulare County. And we need your support!
The SmartPacks program provides weekend meal kits to over 500 children each week across 13 school sites in Tulare County, ensuring they have consistent access to nutritious food when school is not in session. With over 30,000 children in the region facing food insecurity—particularly in rural areas with limited access to affordable, healthy food—this program is a lifeline for families in need.
Foodlink has been dedicated to ending hunger in Tulare County since 1978. The SmartPacks program relies entirely on community donations, and with your help, we can expand to serve even more children at additional schools. By ensuring more kids receive the nourishment they need to thrive, we’re building a stronger, healthier community together.
How You Can Help:
This year’s event will be fully online, making it easy for everyone to participate! The auction will open on August 3rd at 8am, and all bidding will take place via our online auction page HERE.
By moving to an online format, we hope to make this event more accessible than ever, allowing our entire community to come together in support of Tulare County’s children.
Mark your calendar, spread the word, and get ready to bid—because every dollar raised helps feed a child in need.
