You nourished Jinny and her children with hope
Thanks to you, she can send them to school with hearty food
The start of the school year is an exciting time for many. Parents pack hearty lunches to fuel their children’s growth and learning. But for Jinny and her six- and eight-year-old sons, hunger overshadows their anticipation. As they lay their heads on their pillows, their stomachs rumble. “I’m living in a shelter right now with my boys, who are always hungry,” Jinny shares. “It’s hard to tell them they must go to bed that way.”

Food insecurity continues to devastate families across the province and our community. But because of your generous heart and the FoodShare program at Rosalie Hall, Jinny is able to provide for her children. Jinny explains, “Now, I can focus on trying to make a future.” You’re filling backpacks with nourishing meals, allowing students to focus on learning instead of battling hunger.
