t’s been a year of improbablesuccesses. It rained on our Walkfor Hunger, which providesfunds for 400 emergency foodprograms, and 35,000 Walkerswalked anyway. Those who didn’tbring umbrellas or buy them onthe route, walked under showercurtains, even garbage bags.

They were wet, resolute, happy, and proud. And theyshowed us just how much they cared about feedingtheir hungry neighbors.

Six years ago, Project Bread created a nationally recognized model to protect low-income childrenfrom hunger. This year, the Massachusetts ChildHunger Initiative has set the antihunger agenda for the state, as reflected in our third Status Report on Hunger in Massachusetts. A hallmark of thisaccomplishment has been the bipartisan support ofour universal breakfast program, which feeds breakfast to 100,000 low-income elementary studentsstatewide. It’s gratifying that a recent study confirmswhat school principals have found to be true — thatwhen children eat breakfast at the start of the schoolday, their scores improve on MCAS, the state’s standardized test.

Project Bread is about people and justice — not aboutpounds of food. I am so very grateful to the tens ofthousands of people who believe in this principle ofrespect and dignity, who donate to make our workpossible, and who share in all the good it does.

f you suddenly found yourself in need of food,

where would you turn for help? For 35,000 people

each year, it’s Project Bread’s FoodSource Hotline —

a confidential resource that provides personalized

information on where to find the nearest hot meal or

bag of groceries.

In an age of automated phone assistance, our

FoodSource Counselors do the humane thing — they

listen to the pain of sudden job loss or unex-

pected medical crisis and move clients out of

shock and immobility toward a plan that pro-

tects them and their families. This includes

providing customized information about local

Project Bread–funded soup kitchens and food

pantries, about meal sites for the elderly, the

eligibility requirements for school meals and

food stamps, and other resources, such as

food co-ops and farmers markets where hun-

gry families can get nutritious low-cost food.

our help, who thank us again

at us with their heads down but

we do everything we can to look

them in the eye and tell them

that it's okay. It's all because

of Project Bread.”

To protect the emergency food system and feed hungry families, Project Breadhas led a statewide push to transition families to make better use of federalnutrition programs. If we increased participation in Food Stamps, School Breakfast,and Summer Meals programs to 66 percent of those eligible, hungry familieswould benefit from a more consistent form of support and the state wouldbring in over $100 million in additional federal dollars.

ix years ago, Project Bread began a quiet revolution known as hunger

prevention. Less visible than our support of emergency food, this work —

conducted as the Massachusetts Child Hunger Initiative (MCHI) — has

refocused the antihunger work of the state.

The signature program within MCHI has been the introduction of universal

breakfast programs in low-income elementary schools, immediately

affecting the lives of 100,000 students. Over the past two years, Project

Bread has brought another 44 schools in 13 communities into the program,

resulting in a total of 79 schools at 80 percent participation. The

organization has accomplished this by offering incentive grants, which

help principals make changes that encourage greater participation. The

results are gratifying: in the 2004–2005 school year, an additional 3,830

students began eating breakfast as a regular part of the school day,

meaning that an additional 689,400 breakfasts were served, generating

$847,962 in federal reimbursements.

Better Breakfast Program

In 2005, working with experts from the Harvard School of Public Health,

Project Bread piloted the Better Breakfast Program at several low-

income elementary schools in the

state. This program aims to improve

the nutritional content of school

breakfast above and beyond the cur-

rent USDA guidelines. The program

calls for the elimination of high-sugar

cereals and trans fats (unhealthy fats

present in many processed foods).

It also features higher fiber options,

such as fresh fruit or smoothies made

with 1% milk.

Improved MCAS Scores

Researchers from the University

of Massachusetts Boston recently

completed a study of the relationship

between school breakfast participa-

tion and MCAS scores. In schools

where between 60 and 80 percent of

the students are eligible for free or

reduced-price school meals, they

found that school breakfast

participation directly correlated with

higher MCAS scores. This finding

holds for English and math scores

for elementary school students and

is statistically significant. When the

school breakfast participation rate

is over 80 percent, MCAS scores

are significantly higher than when

participation is at lower levels.

or the past several years, Project

Bread has been the only organization in

the Commonwealth to demonstrate

new ways to help families put food on

the table.

In 2005, it developed the first online

food stamp application that allows time- and transportation-strapped

clients to apply right in their own neighborhood. It’s fostered data trans-

fers with other agencies so that families who are currently enrolled in

one federal nutrition program, such as food stamps, become automati-

cally enrolled in others, such as school meals. And it’s conducted a

statewide education program that provides low-income families with

specific information in their language of origin about where to find free

or low-cost food. Through the willingness to try new approaches,

Project Bread seeks ways to break down hunger into a discrete set of

solvable problems and, in so doing, prevent families from suffering.

One of the most intriguing initiatives in 2005 was the

Pediatric Hunger Prevention Project, which was

launched in partnership with researchers at

Massachusetts General Hospital. Its goal was to study

the impact of hunger on health at community health

centers and determine if they could provide a viable new

venue for helping hungry families.

The results were eye-opening: when health care

providers identified families as hungry, they gave them a

gift card to a local supermarket and a referral to a nearby

emergency food program. Additionally, the health center

staff guided families through the process of applying for

federal nutrition programs, which offer an ongoing

source of food. The results of the Pediatric Hunger

Prevention Project suggest that hunger screening can

become part of a family’s regular health check-up and

reliably connect them with existing resources for food.

“I wish that every time we need food thatwe’d just have it in the pantry or fridge. I wish we could have milk, juice, water, eggs and everything that we need to eat . . . .”

Although the adverse effectsof hunger on health aremeasurable, health care pro-fessionals rarely ask theirpatients about it because theyare ill equipped to providesolutions. In turn, hungrypatients are often too embar-rassed to admit that theycannot afford enough to eat.These barriers to assessinghunger are of particular con-cern in the pediatric setting,since children are amongthose most at risk for poorhealth due to hunger.

A study by the Center for Survey Research at the Universityof Massachusetts Boston, sponsored by Project Bread,found that among all households surveyed in low-incomecommunities, 20 percent were food insecure. (Food inse-curity and hunger are both measures of inadequate accessto food.) This finding is three times the statewide average.Additionally, the study found that in low-income areas,both urban and rural, one child in three lives in a house-hold that struggles to put food on the table.

Community health centers offer a highly effectivevenue for reaching out to low-income familiesbecause they have extended hours to accommo-date working schedules, translators for non-English-speaking patients, and providers who have long-standing relationships with families, making themfeel comfortable about receiving help.

Through the Pediatric HungerPrevention study, researchersalso determined that hunger inchildren was correlated with ahigher prevalence of asthma,high lead levels, and failure tothrive. In addition, while exam-ining the children’s medicalrecords, health care providersfound a higher prevalence ofhealth problems in their parents.

School Breakfast and MCASResearchers at the University of MassachusettsBoston recently completed a preliminary studyof the relationship between school breakfastparticipation and MCAS scores. In schoolswhere between 60 and 80 percent of the stu-dents are eligible for free or reduced-priceschool meals, they found that school breakfastparticipation directly correlated with higherMCAS scores. This finding holds for Englishand math scores for elementary school studentsand is statistically significant.

Mayor Michael J. Sullivan (right), along with Superintendent WilfredoT. Laboy (back), welcomes parents to the Gerard A. GuilmetteElementary School in Lawrence to kick off the school’s BetterBreakfast Program. This program, designed for Project Bread byexperts at the Harvard School of Public Health, seeks to improve thenutritional content of a typical school breakfast above and beyondthe current USDA guidelines.

“Thank you for the $1,000 gift to theMcKinley School. The $1,000 helps the school but not as much as ProjectBread. You need to understand thatwithout your involvement, progress likethis falls through the cracks of the dayfor a busy principal. Thanks again foryour inspiration!”

— Paul Dakin, Ed.D, Superintendent,Revere Public Schools “Introducing healthy new breakfast

choices for Lawrence children is part ofa larger plan we have to eliminatechild hunger in our city.”

“The essence of Project Bread's mission is found in the words of the biblical Prophet Isaiah, whoposes the question of what it willtake to create a truly just society:

‘Is it not to share your bread withthe hungry, and bring the homelesspoor into your house; when you seethe naked to cover him, and not tohide yourself from your own flesh?Then shall your light break forthlike the dawn, and your healingshall spring up speedily, your right-eousness shall go before you, theglory of the Eternal shall be yourrear guard. If you shall pour your-self out for the hungry and satisfythe desire of the afflicted, then shallyour light rise in the darkness andyour gloom be as the noonday. Andthe Eternal will guide you continu-ally, and satisfy your desire withgood things, and make your bonesstrong, and you shall be like awatered garden, like a spring ofwater, whose waters fail not.’(Isaiah 58:7-8, 10-11)”

“Participating in The Walk for Hunger really fits Blue Cross Blue Shieldof Massachusetts from the standpoint of our mission. It’s important toaddress the basic need of hunger because it has such a direct tie to healthand well-being. Those who are most at risk are children and seniors: one isour future and the other is our heritage and we should be supporting both.This year, as a flagship sponsor, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusettshad three hundred people involved in the Walk in one way or another. We sponsored the Walk, recruited walkers and Heart & Sole walkers, andmatched gifts. On Walk Day, we also donated a dollar in the name ofevery walker who participated whether they were from Blue Cross or not.So we participated in every level of giving . . . and had a ball doing it.”

— Stephen Booma, executive vice president, Sales, Marketing, and Service, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Massachusetts
