For more than 40 years, we have provided not only healthy meals, but also educational, cultural, and recreational activities to children in a respectful and dignified manner. While our roots are in breakfast, we have expanded to include lunch programs at select clubs, ensuring children receive nutritious meals throughout the day to support their growth, learning, and overall well-being.

Currently, we serve over 10,000 meals per week in more than 40 communities across Southern Ontario.

At our core, we believe that no child should start their school day hungry. But our impact goes far beyond meals. Children who walk through our doors are met with a warm smile, a safe space, and a team of staff and volunteers who see and celebrate them. In addition to nutritious, culturally reflective meals, children receive essentials like winter coats, hygiene items, school supplies, and, most importantly, emotional support.

Our Mission

To enable each community to provide for school-age children a hot, nutritious, culturally reflective breakfast in a social, educational, and stimulating environment.

Our History

Our doors opened in 1984 in the Jane/Falstaff community. We came together around one simple idea: every child deserves to start the day nourished, cared for, and ready to learn. From one club, we’ve now grown to more than 43 across Southern Ontario, working as a non-profit still rooted in dignity, respect, and compassion.

Our Impact

Hunger isn’t always visible, but its effects are. Children who start the day hungry struggle to focus, learn, and build confidence. A nutritious breakfast changes everything by supporting better health, stronger self-esteem, and brighter futures. Every week, thanks to our partners, we serve over 10,000 meals with a holistic approach that also includes programs celebrating culture, encouraging learning, and building community to help children aged 5 to 18 discover their full potential.

Our Programs

We start with breakfast – but we don’t stop there.

With the support of municipal leaders, community partners, schools, volunteers, and sponsors, our clubs deliver opportunities that make a lasting difference:
