for the community
Generally created for youth ages 12-24, community based programs are designed to make services and necessities more accessible to youth and families in Shelburne County.
summer breakfast program
We know there are many families who rely on Breakfast Programs throughout the school year in order to supplement one meal a day.
We are offering a weekly Summer Breakfast Program. Each week you are signed up for you will receive breakfast items to last the week based on your family size.
There are a limited number of spots per week. This will be on a first-come-first-served basis. However, you will be offered a spot in the following week if we are at max capacity.
You can sign up by calling 902-875-3337 or DM us on our socials.
Little Free Pantry
Our Little Free Pantry is full of non-perishable foods and is for anyone who may need to access it! The pantry is available 24/7.
We would like to thank Kelly Wolve-Enslow and the O2 program at SRHS for providing us with the pantry as well as 100 Women who care for allowing us to continue Project Food another year.
Food Boxes
Part of our Covid- 19 Response is to create food boxes filled as needed with both perishable and non-perishable items. These boxes are curated to provide temporary food relief for youth and families in need of support!
Please contact Amanda for more info! 902-875-3337
We thank the community for all of their support! To donate simply re-stock the pantry with non-perishable food items, drop food off at the centre or Contact Us!
School Visits
To meet youth where they are, we visit youth in Secondary Schools across Shelburne County. This is usually done during lunch periods to provide support, help support clubs and provide snacks.
Schools, teachers, support staff, and administrators play a big role in a young person's life so we also do our best to help support staff, clubs and school events.
Staff can be found:
Barrington Municipal High School - Fridays during both the lunch breaks in the Music Room!
Lockeport Regional High School- Thursdays 10:30 - 2pm in room #112
Shelburne Regional High School - Wednesdays during Lunch
