We believe that access to high quality foods is a human right, and anything less is a byproduct of our modern society that places profits over people. By educating young students and their families on the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, we increase their capacity to become more academically and professionally competitive. By also providing a healthy food outlet, we make it possible for our community to live out their desire for a better life in a tangible, practical manner.

Health

When under-nourished, children are more likely to be hospitalized and face higher risk of health conditions. Millions of children are eating too little of what they need and too much of what they don't - malnutrition is now one of the main risk factors for the global burden to disease. 

Education

Lack of nutrition can reduce  IQ  by as much  as  +11  points. Children who don't receive adequate nutrition are more likely to repeat  a grade. 

Lifestyle

When exposed to healthy eating habits, children were 2.7x  more  likely to choose healthy food options when given access.

“MY FOCUS IS DIFFERENT WHEN I'M HUNGRY. 

OF  COURSE  I'M  GOING  TO  BE  THINKING  ABOUT  FOOD - WHICH  ONE  OF  MY  CLASSMATES  HAS  IT  AND  WHO  MIGHT  SHARE  IT  WITH  ME."                                                                                                                                                                                                                     - DON, AGE 16

Hunger  And  Nutrition Deficiencies  Have  An  Impact  On  Nearly  Every  Aspect Of  A  Child’s  Ability  To  Learn.

" I  FEEL  LIKE  REAL  HUNGRY  IS  DIFFERENT. 
IT'S  WHEN  YOUR  STOMACH  GROWLS  AND  YOUR  STOMACH  IS  ALMOST  IN  PAIN. 

FOR  ME, THAT'S WHAT REAL HUNGRY IS. "
