A Quote by Sara Gideon
While I was serving on my town council, I was also volunteering in schools in my community helping to serve free breakfast. I quickly noticed that the same students were coming every day, and they were coming not because they had left the house too quickly and forgotten to eat, but often because there was no food at home.

I always make sure to eat a healthy breakfast because it's the first meal you eat that fuels your body for the rest of the day.
