Children who go to school hungry are less likely to focus on the information they are learning, so they tend to struggle more with school. Often, the meals they have during schools are they only nutritious meals they have for the day. This makes it tougher for them during school breaks or when school is out due to weather or a national pandemic.
To help bridge the gap and make a difference, we can help by being aware of the places we can donate, volunteer or if we know someone who is in need, help them by providing them with access to the resources available to assist them.
