Providing Nutritious Meals to Children in Need
Our
Story
Get to Know Us
Our story began with a simple desire: to help those around us. Growing up, I, Abigail Richardson, witnessed firsthand the struggles of my peers, especially when it came to something as fundamental as food. School can be a stressful environment, and the last thing any child should worry about is when their next meal will. I saw kids being picked on for not having enough to eat or having to stand in the reduced-lunch line, and it broke my heart. I believe that every child deserves a safe and inclusive space, free from the worries of hunger. This passion ignited the creation of our nonprofit, dedicated to ensuring that no child has to face these challenges alone. Together, we can create a community where every child feels valued and nourished.
