Summer is a particularly tough time for many families because children are home from school and no longer have access to nutritious meals at school. This places an added financial strain on families struggling to eat healthy on limited budgets. The impact of the cereal drive helps us meet this need and ensures children have year-round access to healthy meals. We cannot thank Tenet Healthcare and Brookwood Baptist Health enough for their leadership in addressing this critical community health issue.”
