Celebrating National Nutrition Month: Fueling Students for Success

March is National Nutrition Month, a time to recognize the importance of proper nutrition in supporting student learning and well-being. This year’s theme, Nourish to Flourish, celebrates the “transformative role that food and nutrition play in our lives.”

For many students across Edmonton Public Schools, having access to proper nutrition at school isn’t just important - it’s essential to their ability to learn, focus, and thrive. That’s why the Top-ups for Tummies program, alongside other school nutrition initiatives, ensures that thousands of students in Edmonton have access to healthy meals and snacks each day. Whether it’s a nutritious breakfast or an afternoon snack, these programs step up, providing essential support families can count on.

Beyond the classroom, school nutrition programs offer stability and support, reinforcing a sense of community and well-being for students.

Thanks to your generosity, students can focus on learning, not hunger.

Join us in supporting student nutrition and helping every child reach their full potential.

Shoot into Spring with Fresh Hoops

Spring is just around the corner, and our schools are ready for a lot more outdoor fun! 

Visit our Instagram to see just a few of the Fresh Hoops projects across the Division. We can’t wait to get started on this year’s courts!

The Fresh Hoops program started as a grassroots movement to replace basketball nets and has expanded to offer complex court renovations to multiple schools. Updated basketball courts benefit schools, students and the community by promoting teamwork, aiding in social, physical and mental health, and providing an opportunity to access a safe space for sports. 

GoAuto is matching all donations up to $500,000 made to the Fresh Hoops program, bringing the total investment from Go Auto up to a possible $1,000,000! This matched donation will mean new courts for even more schools!

Double your impact by donating today. Just select “Fresh Hoops” and we’ll take care of the rest!
