| June Monthly Meeting | | Print | |
|
The ACF Greater Atlanta Chapter would like to thank Howard Halpern, Kirk Halpern, Ray Farmer, Steve Ginsburg, and the entire staff at Halperns’ for a awesome June monthly meeting. The food was fantastic and the breaking down of the Yellow Fin Tuna was very interesting. We would like to encourage each of you to make the monthly chapter meeting a priority in your schedule. Not only is it a great time to network, but also very informative.

April TOT's Kitchen Report
In April, we added 54 children to our weekend back pack program ! We are now over 200. Thank you ACF for stirring the water of hunger in Atlanta. It is wonderful how far we have come against childhood hunger. We are reaching our goal of adding at least 5 monthly. We are really exited. Thank God for all those who helped. We received 6 boxes of microwavable Beefaroni, 10 cases (x 40 in each case) 100% juice Capri Sun, a box of oranges and 2 cases of Vienna sausages from one community grocery store.
Our snacks for April included : baby carrots, pickle, oranges, apples, banana, pudding cups, sausage biscuits, oreo cookies, 100% juice, cereal, milk, oats, oval-tine cookies, peanut butter sandwich, pretzels, yogurt, cheese sticks, and peanut. Every boat needs a reliable engine and the ACF has been taking Tots Kitchen to its destination all the time. THANKS ACF.
May is celebrated as International Child's Month and we are assisting 4 pre- k classes to gradually replace regular snacks with Fresh fruits and vegetables over four weeks. Each class will use an evaluation tool to measure the outcome.
We had 16 classes in April at six centers with 132 students, 13 teachers and 5 parents. We invite parents to stay for our class which they do enjoy. We are currently preparing for graduation at all our schools( in May).
Plant protein was introduced as an alternative source of protein. One parent told us she did not know any other protein than meats. But she will certainly try veggie- sausages.
We added a new school May 3 with 41 students.
We are looking forward to summer school.
Sincerely,
Marie Johnson
