Funds for operating a free breakfast program can come from a variety of

sources, such as loca merchants in a surrounding communty prvate onors

foundations churches and other venues.

Having the program operate out of a church has the advantage of the tax-

free status of a nonprot organization With the church receiving the donatons on behaf of the ree breakfast program etters soiciting funs and goos

may be maled out Peope working with the program may openy soicit ona

tions rom businesses in the community giving those who donate a receipt so

they ca n egay caim their onaton as a ta x exemption

V.

The best way to nvove community members in the program is to et the know

about the rogram an what its nees are is may be done by contacting the

parents of the children who come to the breakfast program These parents may
