What We Do

The Children’s Hunger Project is dedicated to helping elementary school children in need by providing food packages to take home on weekends and during school breaks. Our mission is simple: to ensure kids have access to basic nutrition when school meals aren’t available.

Each food package contains easy-to-handle, non-perishable items—such as canned ravioli, rice with chicken and vegetables, breakfast bars, cereal, milk, and juice boxes—that require no cooking or refrigeration. This makes them safe and convenient for children who may lack adult supervision or access to kitchen facilities.

Thanks to this support, children return to school on Monday nourished, focused, and ready to learn.

With the help of generous donors and dedicated volunteers, we provide this weekly food assistance and make a lasting difference in the lives of Brevard County children.
