We provide an essential service for local children experiencing chronic hunger. We deliver nutritious food packages directly to at-risk, vulnerable children when they are not in school and need our help the most.
It is estimated that at least 3,000 children in our community do not have access to the nourishment they need to thrive mentally, physically, or socially. School nutrition programs help, but these programs only exist during the weeks that children are attending school.
Consistent hunger, even just over weekends and extended school breaks, can set a child back for life. Most people aren’t aware that there is a significant number of children living with chronic hunger in our community.
