Fueling Futures: Healthy Meals for Growing Minds at Neighborhood Centers
Neighborhood Centers believes every child deserves access to healthy, nutritious meals—regardless of their family’s income. That’s why we go above and beyond what is funded, covering an annual $30,000 gap to ensure no child in our programs goes hungry.
This project supports our daily meal and snack program, which provides breakfast, lunch, and snack to 100 children in our full-day, year-round early childhood programs; nutritious snacks for 200 K–5th graders in five afterschool sites; and full meals and snacks for 120 children in our summer camp.
These meals are more than food—they’re fuel for learning, growth, and play. They help children focus in school, stay energized through the day, and build lifelong healthy habits. For many families facing food insecurity, these meals make all the difference.
Your gift helps feed 400+ children each year—nourishing both body and mind. Together, we can ensure every child has what they need to thrive.
