In honor of National School Lunch Week and Farm to School Month, we visited Clifton Public Schools to learn more about their amazing school lunch program and the difference the #SchoolMealsForAll could make for their students. Thank you to Assemblywoman Alixon Collazos-Gill for attending and being a champion for Clifton residents. The Passaic County Food Policy Council and Hunger Free New Jersey support the #SchoolMealsForAll campaign to ensure all children in NJ have access to the nutrition they need to be successful in school and beyond! Thank you to all of our partners in Clifton who did outreach to make sure parents complete the new School Meal and Summer EBT Application! @New Jersey Office of the Food Security Advocate #FarmToSchoolMonth #SchoolMealsForAll #LiveUnited

When you think of Scholastic book fairs, do you remember the excitement of picking out books or the disappointment of not being able to participate because of financial constraints? We’re teaming up with our community school in Paterson to make a difference through Share the Fair. With just a $10 donation, you can empower a student to choose 1-2 books of their own. Help us create joyful, lasting memories for students at this September's book fair. Your support can turn a simple moment into something truly special for a child. Donate by clicking the link below and writing BOOK FAIR in the impact area. https://lnkd.in/eNrNZXDK
