Food insecurity means that kids, friends in our classes, even families that are in our community, don’t have food and water to be healthy and hydrated, and they don’t have control over this. We have started the Food for Thought project because when our friends in need do not have a healthy breakfast, they can’t focus well in school. It is also important to have a very good lunch so you can focus on the last part of the day. We are saying this from our experiences. When you don’t have regular healthy meals, then it shows on your report card. It can even affect your whole life with long-term health problems.
We know that our Food for Thought project can make a change in our school community for our friends, but to do that, requires a donation from you! Right now your donation will be used to solve this problem by purchasing fresh food items, non-perishable healthy foods, a small refrigerator for fresh food deliveries, milk, and other perishable items. So please, make a change by making a donation to seed the Food for Thought program.
