Blessings in a Backpack is a national charitable organization created in 2004 in Louisville, Kentucky that raises money to feed hungry children. Their mission is to mobilize communities, individuals and resources to provide food on the weekends for elementary school children America who might otherwise go hungry.

To ensure the kids in your community have full bellies over the weekend, Blessings in a Backpack sends them home on Fridays with backpacks full of satisfying and nutritional food. As of March 2016, the program is feeding more than 88,000 children in 46 states and Washington, D.C. at 950 schools in the United States.
A charitable organization wanted to increase their fundraising and decided to add a Trivia Night event. At a challenging time for charity fundraising and for volunteer organizations, they were limited on time and resources. Through internet research they discovered Quizrunners Trivia and found the price point could not be beaten and were instantly impressed with the ease of the product. The decision to use Quizrunners paid off immediately as the Trivia Night was a huge success for everyone involved and $30,000 was raised to feed the children!
