CHILDRENS “FREE AND REDUCED LUNCH PROGRAM”
We are now servicing over 700 of the school children who were on the “Free and Reduced Lunch Program”. Part of this program was to serve the children free breakfasts and lunches at school.
We now are sending groceries home once a week containing 7 breakfasts and 7 lunches, plus snacks, fresh fruit, milk and more for each child in the family. Plus, on the day they pick up, a hot meal is provided for everyone in the family for that day.

Connected Kidz is a DBA of Bountiful Harvest Inc. Jeff Hauk is the Director and Creator of this program.
