The US population has started experiencing food shortages for the past few years. The problem of food insecurity has led over 48 million people to struggle to get enough to eat (Laska et al., 2020). This problem is even more prevalent among children, with one in five facing food insecurity (Silva, 2020). Many students with negative school lunch balances are forced to skip meals or go without food altogether (Cullen et al., 2019). Generally, this can lead to several challenges, including a poor concentration in school, lower test scores, and increased absenteeism.
To address this issue, our team proposes the creation of a new non-profit organization that would provide free or discounted meals to students with negative school lunch balances. This organization would work with local schools and community organizations to identify and serve students at risk for food insecurity. The Food Insecurity Action Center (FIAC) is a new non-profit organization that aims to address the problem of food insecurity among students with negative school lunch balances. FIAC will provide grants to schools to help cover the cost of meals for students with negative balances. In addition, FIAC will work to raise awareness about the issue of food insecurity and its impact on students academic success. FIAC could be funded in many ways, including through private donations, grants, and government subsidies. We believe that with the right mix of funding sources, this organization could significantly impact the lives of many students who otherwise would go without food regularly.
Mission Statement
The mission of this organization is to provide food security for students in elementary and high schools. We believe no child should have to go without food regularly, and we are committed to helping as many students as possible.
Vision Statement
The vision of this organization is to see every elementary and high school student have access to food that will help them succeed in the classroom. We believe no child should have to go without food regularly, and we are committed to helping as many students as possible.
