The grant is meant to offset food costs. Kids can take advantage of this during traditional and FastBreak (grab and go) breakfasts. 

Research indicates that eating a nutritious breakfast before school correlates to higher test scores. 

One in six children in America faces hunger, according to No Kid Hungry. Click here if you'd like to donate to the organization.Â
