Student Nutrition Program

In partnership with schools, the community, Student Nutrition Ontario and the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, Red Cross supports school-based student nutrition programs in participating schools. These programs boost the physical, social and academic development of students by providing universal and equal access to nutritious food that adheres to the Nutrition Guidelines set out by the Ministry. Programming runs 2-5 days per week and can include breakfasts (3 food groups) or snacks (2 food groups).
