When food prices rise, something has to give. 📈 Nearly half of Canadians are choosing between cost and nutrition while paying more every month, and Toronto families are feeling the squeeze. That’s why Student Nutrition Programs matter more than ever, helping ensure kids are nourished, focused, and ready to learn. 🍎✨

The kids brought the energy back to the court at this year’s beyond 3:30 basketball tournament! 🏀🔥
From fast breaks to clutch shots, they showed off their skills, built confidence, and proved teamwork is the real MVP. 🫶🏽
Huge shoutout to everyone who makes beyond 3:30 possible, keeping kids active, supported, and making memories beyond the final score!
Chefs for Change 2026 raised over $1 MILLION to help nourish kids across Toronto! @tfsschefsforchange
From reimagined childhood favourites to a lively cook-off and an incredible student talent show, it was an unforgettable night at St. Lawrence Market. We’re still dreaming about the menu: elevated PB&Js, lobster mac-and-cheese nuggets, pastrami sausage rolls, and more!
Huge thanks to the 20+ chefs who cooked from the heart to help us feed the future.

As the need for Student Nutrition Programs rises across our city, so does the need for an incredibly important group of people who help make it all possible: Volunteers!
This National Volunteer Week, we’ve been celebrating the caring and dedicated people who show up every day to make sure no child goes hungry and every child feels seen. Find out more about who these volunteers are and why they’re so important – and see how you can join in to help!

✨ More than a meal, it’s a recipe for connection! 🥣
We are wrapping up our National Volunteer Week celebration by sharing the story of SNP volunteer, Ruby, who dedicates her time to nutrition for kids.
Ruby and her incredible team provide mid-morning snacks, along with nutritious meals (often hot!), for lunch. 🍎
Thank you, Ruby, for being a "master chef" of kindness and for serving up so much more than lunch! 👏👏👏👏

✨ Fueling potential, one "grab-and-go" at a time! ✨
For our next stop in our National Volunteer Week celebration, we visited a high school on Toronto's north side.
Meet two incredible individuals: Gina and Vice-Principal Ashley! With their help, students can start the day nourished and ready to learn! 👏👏

✨ The secret ingredient in every Student Nutrition Program? The volunteers! ✨
This week marks #NationalVolunteerWeek, and we’re celebrating the incredible volunteers who make Student Nutrition Programs possible by highlighting a vibrant school in Toronto’s east end. 🍎
We had the pleasure of speaking with two incredible individuals who ensure students are nourished each day and ready to learn:
👩🍳 Joanna: A former SNP volunteer who has come full circle as the school’s Urban Indigenous Food Sovereignty Chef Instructor. Her dedication to food sovereignty and nutrition is the foundation of every meal served.
👨🍳 Tyran: A passionate chef and former student of the school who has returned to give back as an SNP volunteer. Seeing a graduate return to nourish the next generation is truly the "icing on the cake!"
From sunrise prep to that final snack of the day, Joanna, Tyran, and other volunteers work tirelessly to ensure that nutritious, culturally meaningful food is always on the menu.
Join us all week as we serve up a massive standing ovation 👏👏👏👏 to the volunteers across Toronto who make the Student Nutrition Program possible.
