Happy First Day of School!
Happy First Day of School to our students and teachers! We wanted to share this quote from a teacher of students in our program, to show how together we are helping to fight childhood hunger, and teachers are seeing a difference in their classroom. We hope that this next school year that Food For Thought will have a positive impact on the lives of students in the program, and also be able help teachers in the classroom by providing snacks to prevent hunger during the school day.
