During COVID, Brant Food For Thought has pivoted operations to support families with school-aged children and youth with nutritious foods, whether they are learning in the school setting or virtually from home. If your family needs additional support at this time, and your school operates a student nutrition program, please speak to your school Principal. We are also building the capacity of local food banks and community agencies to support vulnerable families with children and youth.
