Ensuring that kids don’t go to school hungry shouldn't be a partisan issue. That's why I was happy to host advocates and MPs from different parties to celebrate the inclusion of a National School Food Program in #Budget2024

Celebrating the funding for the National School Food program $62.9m/3years for school infrastructure $1b/5years working with community organizations great to see Breakfast Club of Canada and Amberley Reutz from Arrell Food Institute in Guelph. Looking forward to connecting with Children's Foundation GW
