Not knowing when you will have your next meal is an experience faced at least once a year by over 48,000 children in Collin County
Thousands of children in Collin County are on the free and reduced breakfast and lunch program. Let’s make sure they have something to eat for dinner so they don’t go to bed hungry.
Your donation will provide food for children, the working poor, veterans, senior citizens and the homeless. This is not working right yet.
Poor nutrition during early childhood increases the chance of anemia, limits memory development and can affect a child’s ability to learn.
