John, did you know kids struggling with hunger over summer break are more likely to start the next school year months behind their peers?
When kids face hunger at home, the first resource they usually turn to is school, where they can access free or reduced-price breakfasts and lunches to keep their minds and bodies strong.
But when the school year ends for summer, often the meals do as well - meaning greater strain on already-tight family budgets, greater sacrifices and greater long-term impacts on kids’ well-being.
That’s why supporting No Kid Hungry is critical to ending summer childhood hunger, including helping us raise awareness among our supporters. So, today, we hope you’ll take a few minutes to see how savvy you are about this crisis facing kids across the country through our summer hunger quiz.
Understanding the scope of this problem is the first step to solving it, so please, John: Will you take the quiz now to test your knowledge and help us raise awareness for the summer hunger crisis facing America’s kids?
