John,
Without community members fighting childhood hunger in schools
across the country, millions of kids would not get the food they need
every day to learn, play and dream big.
These heroes who play a critical role in ending childhood hunger
depend on the generosity of supporters like YOU to make their work
possible. Will you give $50 or more now to help us reach our $50,000
goal to support those who provide children with their most important
school supply?

Scott Germain says his work for hungry children stems from a powerful
realization he once had: "Kids can't learn if they're hungry."
As the director of nutrition services at Garrett County Public Schools
in Maryland, Scott now leads a team that works tirelessly to provide
school meals throughout the year in a region where many families are
struggling and have limited access to transportation.
To extend his meals program into the summer, Scott even purchased a
trailer with the support of No Kid Hungry Maryland that he retrofitted
into a mobile meals truck - complete with serving counters and
seating.

In New Orleans, Rosie Jackson and her team are proud to provide 45,000
kids with school meals every day.
"Our employees - once they're there, they're there for the
long haul. We don't have a lot of turnover," Rosie says.
"They are dedicated; they get up every day and come to work.
That's because they have a love for the job and for these
children."
Rosie herself has been working in the district since 1971. But even
she admits that school food service is a really tough job.
That's why she's grateful to have been able to expand her
staff's hours and purchase equipment to expand school breakfast
with the support of No Kid Hungry.

Beyond working to feed children, some school heroes also work to
address the issues causing hunger in the first place.
Vickie Coffey is a nutrition services and healthy schools director at
RBB Edgewood Schools in Ellettsville, Indiana - and she is a
tireless advocate for addressing the stigma of child hunger.
Her work helped remove the barrier of stigma to expand her
community's free breakfast program. Of the 2,700 students in the
district, nearly half of them (1,300) utilize the free breakfast
program.
There are so many people like Scott, Rosie and Vickie at schools
across the country who are making a life-changing difference for
hungry children every day - but so much of their heroic work is
only possible thanks to supporters like you.
That's why we've set a $50,000 goal to support these
community heroes as they ensure that kids are equipped with the most
important school supply this school year. Will you please make an
urgent gift of $50 or more NOW to help support school staff as they
provide kids with the meals and resources they need to thrive at
school?
