“It’s good,” says one girl. But Rebecca Nance, whose parents are from the US, is not so sure. “The taste is weird.” Her mother, Daffany Nance has two children in the program. She’s glad her kids are getting nutritious food. “Even in my house we don’t have much junk food,” she says, “so it’s very important that it’s healthy and continues to help them grow better.”
The charity(慈善机构), Feeding America, started the national Kids Cafe program in 1993, The charity says more than 16 million children in the United States do not have enough healthy food to eat.
Kids Cafe became part of the after-school program at this community center five years ago. Lori McFail heads the after-school program. She says some children do not eat good evening meals because their parents work late or cannot afford healthy food. She hopes the children will make full use of what they’ve learned about nutrition in their lives.
