Every child deserves to walk into their first day feeling prepared and confident. Your gift removes the barrier between a student and their potential.

Did you know the average cost of school supplies is $150 per student? For many families in the food and beverage industry, this "back-to-school" hurdle can feel insurmountable—especially when balancing multiple children and the rising costs of essentials.

Through our Caring for the Classroom initiative, CORE provides direct support to help our industry's families bridge this gap. We ensure that parents don't have to choose between a utility bill and a new backpack. Join us in giving these students the strong start they deserve.
