For many kids, the end of school is something to celebrate. But for those living in poverty who rely on in-school food programs, it means lack of access to healthy food. Our Summer Lunch Munch Program works to fill the gap by providing kids with a nutritious lunch.

In June, we are fundraising for this important program. And, as an added bonus, each donation made through CanadaHelps (minimum $3) could help us win $10,000. Donate today!
