About this program

Everyone wants children to thrive in school and nutrition has been proven critical to their success. Unfortunately, too many students lack access to healthy meals.

In partnership with RISE Southeast Raleigh Charter School (K-8), we are helping to launch a transformative Scratch Kitchen Pilot . Overflowing Hands provided a $75,000 grant to upgrade the school's kitchen facilities and provide "Cafeteria Buddies"- volunteers supporting students as they transition to nutritious food choices.

Across the U.S., children face rising rates of chronic health and mental health conditions. By reducing highly processed foods, this project directly combats these physical and psychological challenges.

Our goal is to create a scalable, sustainable project to implement scratch kitchens in schools, revolutionizing student health and learning, one meal at a time.
