Who We Help
In a recent article published in the Canadian Journal of Medicine, it was estimated that 1 in 5 Canadian children are hungry, defined as a lack of access to nourishment to assist in their physical and emotional growth. As children become adolescents their eating habits continue to decline - 62% of secondary school students do not eat a nutritious breakfast.
Student nutrition programs ensure a good start to a child's day by providing a nutritious breakfast in a safe atmosphere. Our programs ensure that children and youth hunger for knowledge, not for food.
