PROMOTING LEARNING

Numerous research articles have suggested that not only does eating breakfast have inherent nutritional and metabolic benefits, but it has been shown to help improve learning as well. You may already know this from a firsthand account if you have ever sat in a classroom with a growling stomach.

Additionally, it can be extremely hard to concentrate, stay awake, and focus on learning if you do not know where your next meal will be coming from.

Joy of Community Foundation helps students receive breakfast and other meals, so that they can focus on learning and their education can reach its greatest potential.
