The Breakfast Club
From March 2010 through February 2011, the Forever Jordan Foundation collected cereal boxes from sponsoring businesses, parishioners, company employees & individuals. The cereal was donated to People to People, our local Rockland County Food Bank. People to People feeds 1,500+ Rockland Children Each Month.
We would like to thank all those who have supported this project. It was most successful and keep an eye out for future projects. “Giving back to the community…One child at a time.”

Children who eat breakfast regularly perform better in school. Just ask any teacher. When you are not hungry, you can focus on other tasks. Children who eat breakfast also perform better on tests. Breakfast helps reduce distraction and can actually help you feel more alert. |

Children who skip breakfast are likely to become more tired, irritable, or restless by late morning. These symptoms can lead to aggressive behavior that can cause children to get into trouble in school. Children who regularly eat a morning meal have more energy, are less likely to exhibit aggressive behavior, and have a better attitude. |
