To ensure we are supporting individuals and communities most impacted, we will prioritize grant funds to school districts serving majority minority communities, including immigrant populations. We will also provide funds to rural communities where schools face unique challenges in addressing hunger.<\/p><h4>Economic and COVID-19 Impact:<\/h4><p>Grant funds will also be provided to communities experiencing economic hardship and having existing or increasingly high COVID-19 infection rates. In determining economic impact, No Kid Hungry will review data points to include: free and reduced eligible students, unemployment rates, child food insecurity rates, and the social vulnerability index score[1].<\/p><h4>Ability to Serve Kids Today and in the Future:<\/h4><p>Taking into consideration equity, economic hardship and COVID-19 impact factors, funds will be prioritized to support school districts with a strong and sustainable plan for maximizing participation in the child nutrition programs and\/or leveraging other programs to combat food insecurity such as emergency food programs and student and family outreach and enrollment. Applications should address both the immediate need for supporting students and alleviating hunger as well address long-term sustainability of programming.<\/p><h3>APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS:<\/h3><p>Applicants will be required to provide the following information:<\/p><ul><li>District Food Service Director and Superintendent contact information<\/li><li>Historic district-wide enrollment and school meals participation for breakfast, lunch, and afterschool meals and snack from October 2019 and SY19-20<\/li><li>Information about your current and planned food and nutrition programs for SY20-21<\/li><li>Detailed description of grant funding program objectives<\/li><li>Detailed budget of anticipated use of funding<\/li><\/ul><h3>APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:<\/h3><ul><li>Log into or create an account for the No Kid Hungry Grants Portal at\u00a0https:\/\/nokidhungrygrants.force.com\/<\/li><li>To create a new account, click \u201cNew User\u201d.<\/li><li>To begin your application after you have logged into the No Kid Hungry Grants Portal, click \u201cStart a New Application\u201d on your Grantee Dashboard located on the top left corner of your home page, below the No Kid Hungry logo.<\/li><li>Input the following access code to gain access to the application:\u00a0SchoolNutrition2021.
