YOU HELPED US GET BACK TO SCHOOL READY
DID YOU KNOW?
We are now feeding nearly 4,000 children at 57 Brevard Public Schools
| Because of your efforts, more kids will receive weekend and school break food packages this school year! We are delighted to again be partnering with Brevard Public Schools to help meet the fundamental need for our children's nourishment. Without proper nutrition, children cannot thrive academically, physically, or emotionally. We are working to ensure that no child in Brevard County goes to school hungry. | |
