CONTENT to let other organisations answer the ‘why’ when it comes to kids going to school without breakfast, Foodbank WA instead is focused on alleviating the problem where it hits hardest.

The School Breakfast Program started delivering breakfasts of baked beans, bread, Weet Bix and Vegemite to just 11 schools in 2001; that number has since grown and the organisation now feeds breakfast to 37,000 school children in 254 schools every week.
