Our children deserve better than the chaos they’re growing up in.
Mothers, grandmothers, and great-grandmothers carry the hardest job on Earth — protecting and guiding our kids in a world full of dangerous options.

Grateful for the quick response from federal and Texas leaders—and for the heroic first responders working behind the scenes. Praying for the families and communities facing this horrific tragedy. When our children are involved, politics doesn't matter—we just care. 💔

THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR:
Kids who come to school hungry or malnourished struggle in every area:
• Lower memory retention
• Slower cognitive development
• More behavior issues
• Higher absenteeism
• Lower test scores
It’s not a mystery.
Brains need fuel.

Meanwhile in the U.S.?
Access depends on your ZIP code, your paycheck, and your luck.
We can do better.

By kindergarten, they may already struggle with:
Vocabulary and listening
Letter recognition
Basic counting and number sense
Gaps formed early are hard to close later.
