What is Feeding the Future?
Feeding the Future builds on the success of our previous Bags for Breakfast program. While the program has evolved, our commitment to nourishing our communities remains steadfast.
Fuel Good Day: Starting Fall 2024, all proceeds from Fuel Good Day will support our Feeding the Future initiative. We’re excited to collaborate with schools to make this event impactful.
General Donation: Cornerstone Co-op will allocate a lump sum of budgeted donation dollars annually to this program.
Additional Proceeds: Funding sources for 2025 are TBD as we explore new ways to sustain and grow this vital initiative.
Our Impact:
This year, Cornerstone Co-op allocated over $29,000 to 25 local schools in our trading area through the Feeding the Future program. These funds help schools provide healthy meals to students, supporting their education and overall well-being.
In the past five years, Cornerstone Co-op has donated over $150,000 to local schools' breakfast programs. We are committed to continuing this tradition of generosity and making a difference in our community.
