We all learn by example, and Nourishing Lives creates a living, breathing, and fun example of what it means to enact compassion in community.
Each week, we send home a bag/box of food to over 200 families & students. These nutritional items are for the weekends, when free breakfast and lunch are not available to kids. Our goal is to make sure no child in Broward County goes hungry,
In order to accomplish this goal, we are building a network comprised of volunteers, sponsors and partners. All these valuable resources are vital to keep this program going.
We work together in an atmosphere of compassion and empathy, which help us be ready to make adjustments due to changes affecting families daily living.
