John,

As children head back to school across the country, some are worried about getting on the right school bus or finding their classroom on the first day. But too many of our kids are going back to school with more serious worries on their minds—things like hunger, illness, and even their own survival.

Will you take action to address our children’s concerns so they can focus on learning and achieving? Visit our website to find out what you can do today to send America’s children back to school ready to succeed. With your help, we can make sure our children’s needs are at the top of everyone’s back-to-school list.

Sincerely,

Kathleen King

Interim Policy Director
