Support of Feeding Futures Meal Program
Surrey School District’s Jazz Festival raises funds and awareness of child hunger through the Surrey Schools Feeding Futures Meal Program. All performances at the Surrey Schools Jazz Festival are free to attend, donations are gladly accepted and go directly to support meal programs in the Surrey School District.
Breakfast Program
The breakfast program provides an essential source of nutrition for our students, allowing them to begin each school day with a well-balanced meal for both their body and mind. Each morning, students can choose from items such as cereal, 2% milk, whole wheat toast and jam, cheese, yogurt, eggs, and a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables. Along with a warm breakfast, students are met by a trusted adult from the school community and welcomed into the space to enjoy a meal with their peers.
Lunch Program
The lunch program ensures that our students are nourished with a healthy afternoon meal, energizing them for the rest of the school day. Our nutritious lunches are prepared off-site and supplied to our schools daily, allowing students to stay in class with their peers and removing any stigma our students may feel. The lunch menu rotates through items such as sandwiches & wraps filled with different proteins, cultural options, a variety of salads, and fruits and vegetables.
Snack Program
Snacks are distributed each year to students in need at 130 of Surrey’s 132 schools, feeding more than 1000 children per day. This program is operated in partnership with the Surrey Firefighters and is supported entirely through donations from the community. Funding is needed to continue the program and to provide fresh fruit and dairy products.
