More from MIX 101.5’s Vanna Fox:
Think about this….a well fed child stays healthier, a well fed child learns better, a well fed child behaves better, a well fed child becomes an adult who can help care for the world. Look around you and count 5 kids…one of those kids doesn’t know if they will have food between lunch at school on Friday and breakfast on Monday….YES, HERE in the Triangle! This is a Wake County 3rd grader’s comment:
“My mom is working but when she gets her check she doesn’t have enough money to buy enough food for all of us. I live with my Mom, Dad, and four brothers and sisters…There have been times when there wasn’t any food or enough food. Then, we ask a lady for some food, and she gives us some. Some nights we don’t have food – I eat breakfast and lunch at school, and that’s it. Most nights we don’t eat dinner, or only some people eat because there’s not enough for everybody.”
