POWER START
FREE PROGRAM. Our friendly and caring staff pick children up from their homes on school day mornings and safely drive them to the Club. Children are fed a nutritious breakfast and receive help with preparing for the school day, which includes transportation to their school. When school begins, children go to their classrooms ready to learn with a healthy snack for recess. Children who take part in this program may be experiencing challenges with food sustainability or getting to school on time. Power Start is a free community program. If you are interested in volunteering, please click here.
Daily Details: Transportation, breakfast, a recess snack, and school-day preparation are provided.
How to Register: Please obtain a referral from your child's school principal if they attend one of the schools we support.
