Kids N.O.W. - Nutrition On Weekends

Kids N.O.W. – Nutrition On Weekends – is our cornerstone program to address child hunger in our community. Through this program, children in need are provided a bag of food to take home with them over weekends and school breaks, so students come back Monday nourished and ready to learn.

Far too many children rely on school meals as their only stable source of nutrition and times away from school are times of uncertainty, and often, hunger. We currently serve over 2000 children each week and are working to expand the program.

In the schools we currently serve, 90% of the children live in poverty. This program assures children of a continuous reliable supply of a variety of food containing all of the vital nutrients they require for normal growth and development and brings peace of mind to struggling families.
