Nutrition for Learning                          
 

Our Mission

To enhance the ability to learn by insuring that each student attends school well nourished.


What We Do

Nutrition for Learning has been a registered charitable organization since 1997.  We support community based nutrition programs committed to improving the learning capacity, health and well being of children and youth in Waterloo Region.  Research has proven that students coming to school hungry don’t perform well in the classroom, have difficulty concentrating, display behavioural problems, are less alert and are often lethargic.  Our programs impact the physical, cognitive, behavioural and academic needs of children and youth in Waterloo Region.


Nutrition for Learning currently supports over 130 community based breakfast, morning meal and lunch programs impacting approximately 9,000 children daily.  Over 600 dedicated volunteers coordinate student nutrition programs in elementary and secondary schools throughout Waterloo Region.
