Backpacks of Love has received a $5000 donation.

The money is the latest Knox County Community Foundation Community Good Grant.

Backpacks of Love is a program of the Vincennes Community School Corporation.

It provides backpacks of food to needy students in the Vincennes Community School Corporation.

The bags of food are sent home on Fridays with the hope that students will be nourished when they come to school on Monday.

The Knox County Community Foundation invites individuals and groups to begin a fund and contribute to a meaningful cause.
