Based on the funding grant, up to 10,000 2-to-5-year-olds in ECE will receive food from this programme.
All 2–5-year-olds attending eligible ECE services will be able to access KidsCan food.
Eligibility for the programme will be determined by key factors, including socio-economic data from the new Early Childhood Education Equity Index, service types, availability of kitchen facilities and staffing capacity to prepare and serve food.
KidsCan will contact eligible services directly and the programme will begin in early 2025.
