The Village of Hope Niagara has expanded its Back to School program, now supporting an additional 130 children, bringing the total to more than 400 local students.
With the new school year fast approaching, the organization is appealing to the community to help ensure these children have the tools they need to succeed.
Many face the challenge of starting school without adequate supplies or support at home, putting their education and future opportunities at risk.
The program costs $15 per child each month through June, covering weekly healthy snack boxes with items such as fresh fruit, 100% juice, and granola bars, along with essential school supplies and a home internet subsidy.
