GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - Kids Aid, the non-profit that feeds more than 1,200 kids in Mesa County through the Backpack Program, has launched a new Web site to feed more empty bellies.

RSW, a Grand Junction marketing firm, started the Web site to help bring in more donations. Right now, Kids Aid, only has enough food and money to cover 17 schools, but 13 more still need help from the program.

In the meantime, a new report shows it's not just children struggling with hunger. The Colorado Coalition to End Hunger says 80 percent of surveyed clients reported hunger is an issue in their household.
