“New day's mission is to provide food for hungry arlington students on the weekend. We work directly with arlington independent school district (aisd) school counselors to find the students who are either hungry or who may be food insecure or do not have a consistent stream of nutritious food available to them. Counselors identify these students at their schools and contact new day for the delivery of weekend food bags on fridays. The bags are discreetly distributed to students by the counselor. New day volunteers do not have direct contact with aisd students nor their families.”

“Weekend food for hungry students: our main focus continues to supply elementary, middle and high school students with weekend food bags for those students that are food insufficient. If a student has a need for weekend food, they contact a school counselor to be added to the list for weekend food. Our program people, all volunteers, are in contact with the counselors who provide the number of students needing food for the weekend. Volunteers prepare the food bags for delivery and place the bags in designated bins for the participating schools. During the fiscal year, there were 29,835 bags of weekend food delivered to counselors. The contents of an average bag costs approximately 3.20. Total for the year was 95,456. A typical weekend food bag may include items made up of the following: macaroni and cheese (.33); microwave pasta (.86); vienna sausage (.42); milk (.46); juice box (.24); pudding (.21); cereal (.21); applesauce (.23); breakfast bars(.24).”

“Snacks at school for hungry students: students do not perform well if their energy levels are low. The counselors make a determination of those students needing supplemental nutrition during the day and therefore requesting snacks for these students. During the year approximately 13,040 students received snacks. The average snack cost is .29 for a total snack cost of 3,747 snacks consist of milk, fruit, water, granola bars or juice”

“Hygiene items made available: the school counselors asked that some hygiene items be made available to selected students. Items are donated to support this effort. Hygiene items include soap, lotion, shampoo, toothpaste, tooth brushes, dental floss, talc and deodorant. During the year approximately 110 students received bags of hygiene items valued at 1,347.”
