Father Fred Takes Over Local Hunger Program
It started with one school and four students because Laurie Borysiak had to start somewhere. She and her husband took $500 of their own money to buy food and send care packages home every Friday with those four kids at Traverse City’s East Middle School so they would have something good to eat over the weekend.
That was 2011. Tomorrow, these “Blessings in a Backpack” will leave for the weekend with some 230 students in kindergarten through eighth grade at 11 local schools – the first delivery of the school year. And Borysiak is no longer a one-woman show with a crew of volunteers.
