“We have two boys who never complain but they are sure thankful when they can get meatballs, mashed potatoes and carrots.”
As an example of the sort of poverty that the program is dealing with, Anderson relates an incident that can only be described as disturbing.
“We had a situation in one of our schools involving a new family — a mother and four children. They were all found sleeping outside the school because the mother couldn’t afford the bus fare to get back-and-forth from their home to the school,” she said.Article content Anderson said they lived in a small apartment some distance from the school so the mother and her two school-age children — the two others were too young — slept outside the school all night until the principal found them. The principal bought bus tickets, got the mother help from social services and had the children enrolled in the breakfast-and-lunch programs at the school, Anderson said.
