Winter Park Health Foundation Approves Grant to Expand Food Program to Hungerford and Cheney Students
The Winter Park Health Foundation (WPHF) has approved a $25,000 grant to expand the Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida’s Hi-Five Take Home Food Program to needy students in Hungerford and Cheney elementary schools.
Under the program, launched as a pilot program in October 2006, students suffering from chronic hunger receive free food packs that are discreetly placed in their back packs. The food packs contain nutritious food items that can meet a child’s average calorie needs for two days. They receive the packs once a month.
Food items are nutritious, easy to open, and have a shelf-life of at least a year. They are packed at the Second Food Harvest’s Orlando warehouse by volunteers, and then are delivered to schools.
