The Child Nutrition Council of Manitoba is a charitable funder focused on school food access across Manitoba. It administers grants for meal and snack programs offered during school hours and supports funded programs with nutrition education from registered dietitians. Its eligibility guidance prioritizes Manitoba-based programs for school-age students that operate regularly, are available to any student at no cost, and build community support around long-term nourishment. In the funding ecosystem, the Council plays a practical frontline role by moving donor and public support into schools where food security affects learning, health and participation. Its grants help schools sustain regular food programs, plan responsibly and connect funding with nutrition standards and local community partnerships.
