High school interns participating in the Richardson Mayor’s Summer Internship Program (RMSIP) have organized the third-annual RMSIP Healthy Kids Snack Drive, benefiting area children. The public is invited to donate kid-friendly snacks now through Aug. 1. Donations can be made in person on scheduled dates and times, or pre-selected items may be purchased online via the Healthy Kids Snack Drive Amazon Wish List. (If dropping off items in person, RMSIP will e-mail you to coordinate a donation drop off date and time.)
Healthy snack items include individual fruit cups, applesauce cups/squeeze bottles, cereal cups, oatmeal cups, macaroni and cheese cups, soup cups, pasta cups and juice boxes. The items will be distributed through Network of Community Ministries’ booth at the Richardson ISD “Backpack Bash” on Aug. 5 (see below for more information on the Bash). Any leftover items will be distributed to area children by Network.
