OGDEN — It’s back-to-school season, and one group of Utahns is making sure every student is taken care of.

Volunteers in Ogden are rolling up their sleeves on Wednesday to pack more than 5,000 meal kits for students in the Davis School District.

These shelf-stable packs are weekend meals for kids facing food insecurity.

It’s all part of a bigger mission to prep 15,000 total meals through the Bountiful Food Pantry.
