Since then, remote learning has increased the need for programs like this.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Transylvania University\u2019s Food Justice group is addressing a problem exacerbated by remote learning: the food insecurity of schoolchildren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Members meet each week in Rosenthal Commons to put together snack packs for Harrison Elementary students and make sure they\u2019re delivered. Any students with a love for making a difference in their community are encouraged to get involved with the drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s the motivation for organizer Lilly Kramer. \u201cI know I cannot fix the food insecurity that these families are facing, but I know that this is something I can do to help them,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With at-home learning, the significance of the food drive is greater than ever. Many families have been faced with financial hardship, and Food Justice is offering a helping hand. Fayette County schools provide meals on weekdays, but some families struggle with having food that lasts through the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-810x539.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14916\" width=\"409\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-810x539.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-730x486.jpg 730w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/10\/food2-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany kids rely on schools for breakfast and lunch and may not have access to an ample amount of food while at home, so these snack packs help to feed the kids over the weekends,\u201d Kramer added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all heroes wear capes \u2014 it\u2019s a matter of wanting to be the change you want to see in the community.
