Story
We are passionate that no child goes hungry during the holidays. That's why we're looking at ways in which we can further support holiday provision across Greater Manchester schools. Through our Stop Holiday Hunger campaign, Audacious Foundation has been providing more than 6,500 holiday club lunches every year to children who would usually access a free school meal during term-time, but might otherwise go without when school is closed.
Building on our existing program, which has been running since we established the Audacious Foundation in 2018; our vision is to develop existing links with a number of local primary schools in the area. We are looking to provide fresh, healthy school lunches, snacks and drinks on a weekly basis during this year's half terms and summer holidays. In addition, we have been invited to co-ordinate and deliver a fun & interactive holiday programme across 8 weeks of the school holidays for up to 200 participants each day. This is a brilliant opportunity to connect children to some amazing opportunities across the city, the Holiday Programme being a springboard for children to aspire for more & becoming active members of their own communities.
Your generosity not only allows us to meet the immediate needs of people in poverty, but also builds better futures for children and young people in our local communities.
