As local students head back to the classroom, The Hastings and Prince Edward Learning Foundation is launching a vital campaign to ensure no child attempts to learn on an empty stomach.
Marking its 25th anniversary of service, the foundation officially kicked off its Power Their Potential campaign over a fresh breakfast at Prince of Wales Public School in Belleville.
For a quarter-century, the organization has worked to eliminate barriers, from hunger to sudden family crises, that stand in the way of high school graduation.
Executive Director Kellie Brace emphasizes that no child’s potential should be limited by circumstances beyond their control.
To help meet this urgent demand, Elexicon Energy has stepped forward with a transformative $30,000 lead gift.
This donation acts as a community match, effectively doubling the impact of every single gift made by local residents.
That means a $25 donation turns into $50 to provide milk for ten students, while $100 doubles to feed a healthy breakfast to a hundred children.
Elexicon President and CEO Amanda Klein says the company is proud to invest in building stronger, healthier futures for the next generation.
Members of the community are invited to join this 25th-anniversary push to help nourish and uplift local youth. You can double your impact right now by making a one-time or monthly gift at the foundation’s secure online portal.
