As always, MTS families, showed their care and kindness for others in supporting this cause.

Food Support

Did you know that the Breakfast Club of Canada has shared research demonstrating that 40% of Alberta’s children experience food insecurity?  This means that 4 out of 10 children do not have access to food when they are hungry. 

If your family is experiencing challenges with providing food for your children you can find help at Brown Bagging Calgary. 

Complete this form for support and they can deliver lunches to McKenzie Towne School for your children. SCHOOL LUNCH REQUEST You can also find out more information on their website BROWN BAGGING FOR CALGARY KIDS
