United Way’s Backpack Program provides easy-to-make meals for school-aged children in need throughout Genesee County. The program supplies over 1,300 monthly meals to children throughout four school districts. Students can receive the meals through their school district to bring home over the weekend.
There is a heightened attention to ALICE. ALICE is not one person, they stand for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed and represents nearly 24,500 families in Genesee County who live above the Federal Poverty Level, but below the cost of living.
