As another school year approaches, some things remain the same. 1 in 4 children in Calgary is facing food insecurity.
Hunger affects every aspect of a kid’s life: physical, mental, social, and academic. When kids are given the food they need, there is no limit to what they can achieve.
At the start of the last school year, 5200 kids received a lunch every school day.
These numbers have continued to climb.
This school year, The BB4CK community will ensure that over 6,500 kids have a lunch every school day.
“It is important for me that my children receive school lunches because it helps them focus on their lessons. When a child is hungry, he cannot concentrate or study, and he will not understand his lessons” A Mom
Together, we can ensure kids in schools across Calgary receive the nutritious lunch they need to learn, grow, and reach their full potential.
In September, ALL donations up to $100,000, will be matched by The Matt Rumpel Family Foundation.
From golf tournaments to charity races, there are plenty of ways to raise money to care for Calgary’s kids!
