Christina and her husband are the proud parents of Caleb, Kadince, and Mason — Christina’s grateful for friends like you who are helping all three kids thrive this fall in school and life.
Caleb is a sophomore in high school and is focused on sports and academics, particularly in the health science program.
His younger brother, Mason, loves video games. But Kadince, an eighth grader, is passionate about art, and enjoys singing and listening to music.
Christina’s husband works fulltime to support the family, but with three growing children there are times when it’s a challenge to make ends meet and put enough food on the table.
Thankfully, the family found out about the Kansas Food Bank’s Food 4 Kids program through a school counselor. Christina says the program has been a significant source of help, especially when schedules are hectic.
The snacks and juices are helpful during busy days that include long hours at football practices. And having access to milk through the program has been a crucial resource, ensuring the kids can have milk with their morning cereal even when finances are tight.
“We’ve had struggling times, and that milk has definitely made a difference,” Kadince shares.
Kadince has a word of thanks for friends like you who make it possible for her to have nutritious food through the program.
“It’s very nice to know there are people out there who love to work with other people and help them through rough times,” Kadince says.
