We send breakfast and lunch home for the weekend with kids in need from their school counselors. We pack it in a back pack so it is discreet and can take home food each Friday. We have distributed over 156,000 meals to date.
We partner with local restaurants to pick up their and distribute the left over food, Currently we pick up from Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Longhorn Steakhouse, Chick-Fil-A, and McDonald's and distribute it to communities experiencing food insecurity and hunger twice a week.
Our homeless supply initiative gives some essential items to those who are in dire need. We have given sleeping bags, ponchos, socks, hygiene kits, food and more. Our initiative program has been active in Phoenix, Seattle, Dallas and Salt Lake City since 2016.
As kids get ready to go back to school we give them a fresh start with a back pack, school supplies, hair cut, shoes, socks and pants. We have delivered supplies to over 2,000 kids to date.
So many kids are unable to experience sports in an organized manner due to financial hardship. We want to give those children an opportunity to learn and grow without the worry of paying to play. To date, we have scholarships to over 1,200 children to play sports.
During the Holidays we give each child clothes, shoes, socks, hygiene items, and toys and for the parents we will give household items needed and clothes and shoes to the parents. Our average yearly distribution includes over 7000+ articles of clothing/shoes along with 2500+ toys, bikes, books, balls, etc.
