Schools with children who would benefit from KidsCan support can apply to become a partner school. Once a school finishes our application process, and we have adequate funding to support them on an ongoing basis, they have access to our free food, clothing and health products.
Shelf-stable, nutritious food including canned fruit, pasta, soup, scroggin and baked beans is delivered to schools once per term. Schools then distribute this to children needing breakfast, lunch or snacks.
Fleece-lined jackets are provided to the entire school roll to encourage inclusiveness, and shoes and socks are given to students identified by the school as needing them. Health products including nit treatment are ordered as needed.
