The Children's Hunger Project

The Children's Hunger Project On empty stomachs, kids don’t have the energy to focus, engage, learn and grow.

The Children’s Hunger Project provides kid friendly weekend and school break food packages to Brevard elementary students on free/reduced lunch—filling in the gap from Friday lunch to Monday breakfast for kids who might otherwise go without food. Yet, this is the reality for many children who worry about when they’ll have their next meal. Every week, The Children's Hunger Project helps as many ele

mentary school children as possible to carry kid-friendly food home in their backpack.…it's lightweight, easy for kids to handle, and no cooking is required. On Monday, the kids return to school but with a better and healthier foundation for learning. Thanks to many volunteers and supporters, we have served Brevard County children on school weekends without missing a single week, since 2010. To continue serving and help those still on the wait list for weekend food fuels our passion and compassion to work on behalf of hungry children locally.

Summer has officially begun, and that means our Summer Feed & Read Program is underway! ☀️📚

Over the coming weeks, more than 2,000 children across Brevard County will receive not only nutritious weekend food packages, but also a brand-new book each week to keep their minds growing all summer long.

A special thank you to our partners at United Way Space Coast and to every volunteer who helps make this program possible. Together, we're feeding bodies, fueling minds, and creating brighter summers for local children.

Summer Feed & Read is officially underway!

This week, children across Brevard County received their first weekend food package and a brand-new book through our Summer Feed & Read Program.

While school may be out, hunger doesn't take a summer vacation. Thanks to our partnership with United Way Space Coast, we're helping children stay nourished and keep reading this summer.

We were honored to welcome the Health First leaders to The Children’s Hunger Project! During their visit, they learned about our mission to fight childhood hunger in Brevard County, saw firsthand how our program works, and rolled up their sleeves to help pack food for local children facing food insecurity.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about the challenges many children in our community face and for helping us make a difference. Your support, teamwork, and willingness to serve will help ensure that children have nutritious food to get them through the weekend.
