While many families prepare to share a meal and exchange gifts over the winter vacation, some families worry that they will not have enough food to put on the table. Schools in Little Rock close for a two week winter vacation and many kids in our community rely on free breakfast and lunch at school. Be Mighty Little Rock wants to help parents and caregivers become aware of the different locations around Little Rock with fun activities and food for youth ages 18 and under.
