One in five children in Frederick County faces food insecurity. To help meet this critical need, 36 employees recently volunteered to pack 1,250 bags of food for local children. These bags support students who rely on FCPS Maryland for their weekday meals.

Through the efforts of Blessings in a Backpack Frederick Chapter, a local nonprofit, this food is sent home with students each Friday, helping ensure they have nourishment over the weekend.

This marks the tenth year that Leidos Biomedical Research, operator of the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research, has supported the event.
