Paris ISD schools benefit from “Campbell’s Project Backpack.”
It was a sea of 2,750 red sling bags full of healthy goodies when Campbell Soup employees made the delivery for students as part of the company’s “Project Backpack.” Shelf-stable items from seven different food categories, ranging from protein to fruits and vegetables that are nutritionally sound, filled the bags.
