We believe all students have the right to nutritious, culturally appropriate food that allows them to attain their full potential. ​​

Food Fuels Learning was started by a parent who saw children coming to school hungry. With the support of the Superintendent and the Cumberland County Food Security Council, this community-driven effort was born. Meeting with over 200 members of the Portland, Maine community about their greatest successes and struggles within the school food system, we published the 2018 Food Fuels Learning report with recommendations from Portland Public Schools food security champions. ​

Food Fuels Learning continues to be a network of caring and dedicated champions who work to ensure students are nourished and thriving. ​It has since expanded to become a network made up of various nonprofit and government organizations interested in alleviating youth food insecurity throughout Portland, led by Cumberland County Food Security Council, Cultivating Community, City of Portland Public Health Division and Locker Project.
