JUST $2.70 FEEDS A HUNGRY CHILD IN YOUR COMMUNITY

THE VISION: NO CHILD HUNGRY IN ALBERTA

Something has been burning on my heart for some time and I’d like to share it with you: no child hungry in Alberta.

Sydney is a little girl in grade one. A few weeks ago she was at our after school program and she was eating three sandwiches at a time. When she asked for another sandwich there was fear in her eyes, a look that said, “I might go home and not have dinner – please don’t say no.”

The lack of food can impact Sydney’s growing body and her mind- and it makes her feel afraid and insecure. How can we strengthen Sydney and support her as she grows – how can we give her hope? It all starts with a meal.
