Why a Cereal Drive?

To stock school shelves for the upcoming year, Brandon’s Food for Thought Program is teaming up with Dynamic Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic to collect nut-free cereal for students from K-Grade 12.  MB School Nutrition Guidelines are followed to ensure every child has access to nutritious options.

Most-Needed Cereals (Nut-Free)

• Multigrain Cheerios/Plain Cheerios/Toasted Oat O’s/Cheerios Veggie Blends
• Oatmeal Squares
• Chex (Rice, Corn, Cinnamon)
• Mini-Wheats (low sugar)
• Corn Flakes
• Rice Krispies/Crispy Rice
• Crispix
• Instant Oatmeal packs (variety, apple/cinnamon, peach, regular)

Why It Matters

-1 in 5 Canadian children live in food-insecure households.

-Students may arrive hungry due to rushed mornings, caring for siblings, lack of food at home, long commutes, or early drop-offs.

-Nutritious food improves learning, behaviour, focus, and social skills.

How to Help?

-Donate: Drop off nut-free cereal at Dynamic Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic; 1100 Richmond Avenue; Brandon

-Give: Monetary donations welcome year-round.  Cash/cheques dropped at Brandon’s Food for Thought; 637 10th Street; Brandon.  Credit card – go to www.brandonsfoodforthought.com and click on the donate now button top right corner or find our charity on canadahelps.org.  Contact ang.bfft@gmail.com for more info.
