Giving Hearts Day campaign to fund milk and snack for K-4 students

2/8/2019

0 Comments

 
With help from donors, Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation wants students in Moorhead Area Public Schools to receive milk and snack break, even if their families are struggling to make ends meet. On Feb. 14, the Legacy Foundation will be part of Giving Hearts Day 2019, and contributions to the foundation’s Food for Thought campaign will fund this effort.

Donations made on Giving Hearts Day, which is co-hosted by Dakota Medical Foundation, Impact Foundation and Alex Stern Family Foundation, will be matched, furthering the impact. Learn more at www.givingheartsday.org.

Currently more than 900 of the 2,600 K-4 elementary students in Moorhead Area Public Schools are eligible for free or reduced-price meals, but this program doesn’t cover the cost for elementary milk and snack break or fill the gaps when families’ financial situations change. For some students daily snack break is one of their meals.

In 2017, Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation’s Giving Hearts Day ​Food for Thought ​campaign raised funds to support 200 students, providing them with milk and snack so they could learn and focus in the classroom. In 2018, more than 180 donors raised $13,900 for the Legacy Foundation’s Food for Thought campaign to provide students in need in Moorhead Area Public Schools with milk/snack.

This year the Legacy Foundation wants more students to be able to focus and learn better in the classroom by providing funds to the schools to support milk, snack and critical needs. Donations may be made at www.givingheartsday.org on Feb. 14 or scheduled in advance.

Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organization focused on funding the needs of current and future students in Moorhead Area Public Schools and creating an endowment to support the schools in the future. Learn more at www.moorheadlegacy.org.
