Harvesters No School=No Lunch Near Southcreek Office Park

37% of the hungry people Harvesters’ network of food pantries serves are kids.  Help fight this problem in the Kansas City area by participating in the No School=No lunch program from June through August.  Harvesters is teaming up with Price Chopper to serve kids who go hungry this summer.  Over 90,000 elementary school children in the Kansas City area rely on a free school lunch as their only consistent, nutritious meal of the day.  Now that school is out for the summer, these kids have to go without that resource.  Here is how you can help:

  • Purchase coupons.  At your local Price Chopper checkout counter, be on the lookout for coupons you can buy to make donations of $1, $5, or $10.
  • Buy “kid friendly” food items.  While you are shopping, you can buy kid-friendly food items and place them in the Harvesters donation barrels located at each Price Chopper.

Last year during these summer months food donations went down by 40% during a time when kids especially need help more than ever.  Help fight hunger in your community during your everyday grocery shopping!

If you would like to learn more about Kansas City office space available in a community like Overland Park, give one of our commercial real estate brokers in Kansas City a call at 913-685-4100!  We can tell you more about the benefits of office rental in our area and even set you up to take a tour of one of our available spaces!
