No Kid Hungry Grants is sponsored by Share Our Strength (No Kid Hungry). No Kid Hungry provides grants to schools and community groups across the country to help them afford what they need to feed kids. This often includes equipment like refrigerators, coolers, carts, and cooler bags to deliver meals, especially for breakfast in the classroom programs.
The grants are rarely used to buy food itself, as federal programs typically cover that cost.

Grant Inquiry Information | No Kid Hungry Grant Inquiry Information A key part of No Kid Hungry’s strategy is building partnerships and supporting federal child nutrition programs through grantmaking. Our grants provide schools and community-based organizations with the financial support they need to ensure kids have access to the nutritious food needed to live, learn and play.
At this time, we are prioritizing funding to support increasing access to and participation in the School Breakfast Program and non-congregate summer meals. Limited funding is available to support increasing access to other federal nutrition programs. *Please note that completion of the form does not constitute an automatic invitation to complete a No Kid Hungry grant application.
