Dear Friend,
Millions of America’s children head back to school this month where
they’ll focus on reading, math, history and, well, just being kids.
But for 1 in 5 of our kids, an obstacle stands in their way: not having
enough nutrition to live up to their full potential. Too often, the only
meal that these children receive is a school lunch.
Please
join the No Kid Hungry campaign and educators across America to help
end childhood hunger and create a nation of healthier, smarter children. We can’t let them do this alone.
Principal McElhaney, from a middle school in Maryland, has seen the
effects of hunger firsthand, like when, one morning, a student failed a
test and told him he just didn’t care because he was too hungry to think
about his school work. Like many of our heroes in the school system, he
knew he had to do something.
Educators like Principal McElhaney and the No Kid Hungry campaign know
that one critical solution to fighting hunger is offering school
breakfast. Today, Principal McElhaney’s school offers breakfast to all
their students, making sure they start their day with the nutritious
food they need — so when it’s time to focus on instruction, hunger
doesn’t stand in their way.
Please
take a minute to hear Principal McElhaney’s story and make a donation
to the No Kid Hungry campaign. Your donation helps connect more kids to
school breakfast. For every dollar you give, you can help provide up to 10 meals for a child, including a nutritious breakfast.
By supporting the No Kid Hungry campaign, you can bring us one step
closer to helping millions of hungry children across the nation feel
better, learn better and reach their full potential.
Thank you for all that you do to build a No Kid Hungry America.
Sincerely,
Billy Shore
Founder and CEO
