Who We Are
Over the last ten years, FOUND has created, operated and continually improved upon our FUEL IN THE SCHOOL model. This model is designed to meet the most basic needs of school children who often go without food, proper clothing, hygiene items, and school supplies. These kids live right here in our community, often only a few blocks from us. We do this work by inviting the community in to help us meet the needs of the student where they are - in school.
Hear a need. Rally the community. Meet the need.
Teachers are on the frontlines. You’d be shocked at how many teachers provide practical things like deodorant for their students. We partner with schools so that when a student has a need, we can provide a solution. Teachers can “shop” the resources donated from the community to meet the many needs they find in the classroom.
