1. Show Kids You Care is dedicated to feeding hungry children...

Show Kids You Care is dedicated to feeding hungry children in Canada through breakfast clubs, lunch programs, and snack programs. In this country, about 1.1 million children live in poverty. Many of these children suffer each day. They are suffering because there is no food for breakfast; they don't bring lunch to school; and there might not be dinner either. Children are ill. Their bodies aren't developing properly. They can't concentrate in class. They are suffering from chronic hunger. The mandate of  Show Kids You Care is to make sure every child in Canada has reliable access to nutritious food in a safe environment.  

2. We lead a network of 460 breakfast clubs, lunch programs...
We lead a network of 460 breakfast clubs, lunch programs, and snack programs that feed 130,000 children 450,000 nutritious meals each week. Our goal for the upcoming school year, 2009-2010, is to feed 250,000 children each week. It's an enormous task, and we can't do it alone. We need your help to feed these hungry and vulnerable children.
 
3. In communities across Canada, hungry children are being helped...
In communities across Canada, hungry children are being helped, but there are many more that go without adequate nutrition. During the summer months especially, when schools are closed and school-based programs are unavailable to children, we work extremely hard with community partners to provide nutritious food to children in parks, day-camps, and community centres.

 

It's time to take a stand to protect this country's most valuable resource - our children. Your support is needed today. Join with us and together we can put an end to the epidemic of child hunger and poverty in Canada and make a difference in a child's life - in a million children's lives - today!


 

How Do You Show Kids You Care?

"I bake with my kids. It definitely isn't any faster or easier to get the baking done, but I love spending the time with them getting our hands full of flour and dough! Then, the most fun part is eating the 'fruits of our labour'!"

Tricia, mother of 4, Newfoundland

"My children love when we sing silly songs in the car. We make up new words to the song so we can sing about their friends, their teachers, and even our dog! My kids know...
