Nurturing via education

We’re fortunate to live in a thriving community with varied and valuable resources and programs. As you know, learning about the number of hungry kids in the northland led to the creation of our nonprofit and partnership with the wonderful BackSnack program developed and administered by Harvesters.

Great schools are highly desired and most of us want to ensure our kids receive a thorough education, and are surrounded with caring and talented teachers. We were so pleased to read the recent ranking of the top 2,000 high schools in the nation and find one of our own, Park Hill High School ranked as 749th!!  Ensuring all our children are well-fed makes it more likely they will benefit from this quality education.
