Dear Norwell Families,
Norwell’s Breakfast Program and The Children’s Foundation are working hard to meet the growing need in our community, and that includes fighting food insecurity through our Help Kids Live Free from Hunger campaign. 100% of the funds raised will go towards providing healthy meals to students through our Breakfast Club Keep Kids Fed At School student nutrition program. With your help, we can continue to provide healthy meals for our school community.
This year, the need is greater than ever. In Ontario, 1 in 4 children experience food insecurity, and with rising food prices a healthy Keep Kids Fed At School meal can cost up to $2.50.
Campaigns like Live Free help us continue to meet the growing need within our school community and ensure those most in need feel supported. Please refer to our school cash online to donate to our school’s nutrition program. You can also Click here to donate to make a donation to our school’s Live Free campaign through the Children’s Foundation, if you would like a tax receipt for donations of $20 or more. Please remember to select our school from the drop-down list so that your donation will be directed to our school’s nutrition program.
Our breakfast program is available to all students! Maybe they forgot their lunch or are going through a growth spurt and require additional food, or maybe they would like to try the new food we are offering. For whatever reason, there is always food available to our students, so please encourage them to use the program if they need to.
We hope you'll join us in bringing healthy food to hungry minds!
With gratitude,
