In a heartwarming gesture of community support, the Feed the Kids Foundation (https://feedthekidsfoundation.org/)has donated $6,500 to the Nebo School District to help cover the cost of school lunches for students in need. This generous contribution is set to alleviate the burden for families who struggle to afford school meals, ensuring that all students have the opportunity to enjoy nutritious lunches without the worry of financial constraints.
The donation targets those students who have accumulated lunch debt prior to qualifying for free and reduced meal programs. This initiative will not only clear existing debts but also ensure that students can focus on their education rather than financial stress.
The funds were raised during a successful fundraising event, themed "Casino Night," which brought together community members, educators, and local businesses in a spirited evening of entertainment and philanthropy. The event was a testament to the power of community collaboration, highlighting the collective commitment to ensuring that every child in the district has access to essential resources.
Feed the Kids Foundation's ongoing support and dedication to children's well-being have made a significant impact on the lives of many students and their families. The foundation's mission to alleviate child hunger and support educational success aligns perfectly with the goals of the Nebo School District.
This donation serves as a reminder of the importance of community involvement in education and the significant difference that generosity and kindness can make in the lives of young learners. The Nebo School District extends its deepest gratitude to the Feed the Kids Foundation and to all who participated in the Casino Night fundraiser for their unwavering support and commitment to nurturing our students' futures.
Together, we can continue to build a community where every child has the opportunity to succeed without barriers.
