Mealshare and A&W announce momentous partnership to help end youth hunger! On ‘Mealshare Mondays’, customers can order a Cheddar Bacon Uncle Burger Combo and one meal will be provided to a local child in need. Food for Thought has been partnering with Mealshare and together we are eliminating child hunger one child at a time. #endhungernow #foodsecurity #breakfastprogram #learnbetter #schooldistrict23 #breakfastforall #foodsecurity #partnership #mealshare #centralokanagan

Big or little, every action counts. Be kind, listen, reach out to others, and join the conversation to help create positive change. #BellLetsTalk #bekind #mentalhealth

No matter the weather, kind hearted volunteers ensure food is provided for students in need. We thank them and the @centralokanaganfoundation and @unitedwaysibc for their ongoing support. #SchoolDistrict23 #backpackprogram #breakfastprogram #healthyfood #healthykids #learning #brighterfuture #superheroes #volunteer #locallove

Malnutrition in children hurts cognitive function and contributes to poverty by impeding people’s ability to lead productive lives. Poverty is the leading cause of hunger, but poverty also results from hunger, in a cyclical relationship. We thank the @cityofkelowna for supporting the delivery of our programs that enable children to live healthy, productive lives. #foodsecurity #nochildhungry #backpackproject #endhunger2030 #supportlocal #togetherwecan #community #endpoverty #volunteering #kelowna

A wonderful collaboration with the Okanagan Fruit Tree Project and the Okanagan College students. The culinary arts students are providing food security for local kids.

Hunger in children isn’t something we can ignore. Existing organizations @unitedwaysibc and programs like Food for Thought are tackling food hunger in Canada and doing what they can. We appreciate all our dedicated volunteers that are giving so much in an uncertain time. #frontlinevolunteer #makeadifference #feedkidsnow #breakfastprogram #backpackprogram #covid_19 #challengingtimes #endhunger2030 #locallove

Did you know, school breakfast participants are more likely to consume diets that are adequate in important vitamins and minerals. Children who live in hungry households depend to a greater degree on school meals for their nutrition. In our city there are many children in need of food security. #Donations #Charity # #Stopchildhunger #forthechildren #feedkidsnow #endpoverty2020 #HopefortheNations #BreakfastProgram #BackpackProgram #learnbetter

Food for Thought volunteers delivered thousands of breakfasts this week. Working together with schools, sponsors, and community organizations, Food for Thought is part of the social safety net that supports local children, especially in trying times such as these. #schoolbreafast #volunteers #unitedwaysibc #petersindependentgrocer #BreakfastProgram #foodsecurity#endpoverty2030

In a time of national crisis we are grateful to @aplaceforfood and #goodfoodacessfund donors for providing essential funding. This funding will make a significant difference in providing food security to local elementary, middle and secondary students. #thankyou #impact #endchildpoverty #learning #covid2020 #breakfastprogram#backpackprogram#foodforthought#gardenproject#feedkidsnow#grateful
