Why you should vote for this non-profit
Have you ever wondered about the children who get their best meals in the school cafeteria?   What happens when they’re not in school?   
Many children who qualify for free lunch or reduced fee lunch at their schools have little to eat at home and return to school after weekends distracted by their hunger and unable to focus on learning.
Family Mentor Foundation’s goal is to bridge the gap; to send these kids home with a Buddy Box every Friday during the school year to alleviate their hunger. A Buddy Box is a box filled with kid-friendly, nutritious, nonperishable, individual sized-food items that are easy for children to eat or prepare on their own. These meals and snacks help sustain the children on the weekends when they are not in school.
Currently, we provide Buddy Boxes for 1,500 hungry children at schools in Worthington, Columbus and South-Western City School Districts during the academic year, and at multiple summer feeding sites throughout the summer.
$150 covers the cost of Buddy Boxes for 1 student for the year. Our goal of $3,000 will provide a Buddy Box to 20 Franklin County children this coming school year.  
We are grateful for our sponsor HHH CPA Group and the Kiwanis Club of Central Ohio for the opportunity to participate in the 2021 Charity Regatta."
