Always Heroes — A Tribute to Those On The Front Lines Feeding Our Nation's Kids
We know all of the numbers, and they are staggering! 124K schools closed, 30M food insecure kids at risk, with millions more in need of support due to the challenging economic times for their families. It can feel overwhelming, but those on the front lines of feeding our children – the school nutrition professionals, the volunteers, the school bus drivers – are the pillars of strength for their school communities. Each and every one of them is dedicated to ensuring that this urgent work gets done. GENYOUth is paying tribute to these every day super heroes with a new video – Always Heroes. Listen to their voices, hear their stories and see their unwavering commitment to our kids. This special video was created as a pro bono gift of generosity from 522 Productions. We are grateful to their leadership and creative teams for raising their hands to help GENYOUth. Please join our crusade to help provide grants to schools for critical resources and equipment; donate www.genyouthnow.org/donate or text SCHOOLs to 20222. #ForSchoolsSake
