Daily Meal
Nourishing Bodies, Building Relationships
Every day at lunchtime, our Daily Meal Program provides a hot meal to the most vulnerable children and youth in our programs. But it’s more than just food—it’s a place of connection, care, and community.
For many, this meal is the only one they will receive that day. It serves as a vital support system, ensuring that every child is physically nourished and emotionally uplifted. As they gather around the table, relationships are built, hope is restored, and a sense of belonging grows.
