Food4Kids-Muskoka volunteers provide packages of healthy food for children with limited or no access to food each weekend. Referrals are received from schools aware of children and families struggling with food security. Volunteers package food each Wednesday and volunteers deliver food to schools each Friday morning. At the school, the food package is quietly tucked into the child’s backpack and when the child arrives home and opens their backpack, a healthy food supply awaits them. We commenced operations in several Huntsville and Muskoka Lakes area schools and will be expanding to Bracebridge and Gravenhurst as funding amounts increase. Food4Kids-Muskoka is a registered non-profit community organization with a volunteer Board of Directors and two part-time employees and we welcome donations from individuals and businesses across the region.
