Breakfast Club of Canada has Canadian kids’ well-being at heart. Experience has taught us that the only way to have a sustainable impact on children is by working hand in hand with every school’s community. This allows for a more dynamic, nourishing environment, and a greater sense of belonging, which greatly contributes to their success.
We are present in every province and territory, which means we are aware of the diverse realities across Canada, as well as the fact that every community has specific needs. Agility and adaptability are our strengths. No challenge is insurmountable when it comes to making sure our kids have access to breakfast before class.
We accept applications year-round from schools, school boards, and community organizations seeking support for breakfast programs offered to school-aged children and youth during the school year.
