The Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry has provided kitchen staples to the William S. Hart Union School District Wellness and Resource Centers, ensuring that students and families facing food insecurity have access to nutritious options during the school day.
Additionally, the donation included coffee for district educators, acknowledging the vital role teachers and staff play in supporting student achievement.
“No child in our community should face the challenge of learning on an empty stomach,” said Andrew Taban, Board President of the Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry. “Access to food is fundamental to academic success and we are committed to supporting our students and look forward to future opportunities to work with the Hart District to ensure every student has the resources they need to succeed.”
The SCV Food Pantry remains dedicated to expanding its impact across all segments of the community and welcomes opportunities to collaborate with local schools and educational institutions, said Taban.
“It is a privilege to give back to our community in such a meaningful way, said Peter Warda, Executive Director of the Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry. “By supporting our local students, we deliver on our mission statement to alleviate hunger in the Santa Clarita Valley. When we can help ensure that students have what they need to focus on their education, we’re investing in the future of our entire community.”
