The Advisory Board plays a vital role in advancing the mission of Blessings in a Backpack in Central Florida. Members serve as mission-driven advocates, strategic fundraisers, and hands-on volunteers, helping ensure local students have hunger-free weekends throughout the school year.

Advisory Board members help guide chapter priorities, strengthen relationships with schools and partners, and build awareness throughout the region. Key contributions often include cultivating corporate and community partnerships, supporting special events and fundraising initiatives, connecting the chapter to new networks, and sharing insights that help shape long-term strategy. Members also have opportunities to participate in packing events, visit local schools, and witness firsthand the impact their leadership has on the community.

This role offers a meaningful way to utilize your experience, influence, and passion in supporting children across Central Florida — helping them return to school on Monday nourished, confident, and ready to learn.
