one by one®: Hunger in Moose Jaw
For more than 30 years, Hunger in Moose Jaw has been dedicated to a straightforward yet vital mission: making sure no one goes hungry. With its range of programs, including Child Nutrition and The Good Food Box, Hunger in Moose Jaw is making a big difference.
A particularly noteworthy program—Child Nutrition—provides nutritious lunches prepared fresh every morning to 430 students across the 18 schools in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Four hardworking team members work hours each day to prepare these meals, which include a sandwich, fruit, vegetable, snack and dairy product. Child Nutrition ensures kids can concentrate on their studies, not their stomachs, and continues to support them during summer and school breaks with bags stocked with food. 
Another program—The Good Food Box—offers an affordable way for anyone to access bulk fruits and vegetables. Along with a community garden, cooking classes, a junior chef program and a preschool initiative, this food program showcases the organization’s commitment to providing food security in Moose Jaw.
Promotional tote bags carry hope for the future
Hunger in Moose Jaw used a 4imprint one by one grant to purchase promotional tote bags. To further the organization’s reach and impact, team members hand out these bags at events, gift them to staff and volunteers, and include them in The Good Food Box packages for new participants. These bags act as a practical tool to spread the word about how the organization can help local people in need.
“The tote bags are really important for us to spread the word about who we are and what we do,” said Sharla Sept, executive director. “Without the grant we probably wouldn’t have been able to purchase the bags. It’s a great way for us to promote our cause.”
