Together, We Can End Child Hunger
Hello, we are Kelly Baik and Helen Stambelos, the Co-founders of the Aspirations Foundation. Our mission is simple yet profound: to eradicate child hunger in Montreal and the surrounding areas. Every day, countless children go to school without having had a proper meal, impacting their ability to learn and thrive.
Take Sarah, for example—a bright, eager 8-year-old who loves to read but often struggles to concentrate in class because she hasn’t eaten breakfast or lunch. Sarah is just one of many children we aim to support. With every meal we provide, we are not just feeding a child; we are nourishing their potential.
At the Aspirations Foundation, we distribute over 1.3 million meals and snacks each year to children in need. But we can’t do it alone. We need compassionate partners like you to help us sustain and expand our efforts.
Your support will ensure that children like Sarah have the nourishment they need to succeed academically and socially.
We invite you to join us in this vital cause. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us reach more children and create a brighter future for our community. If you believe in a world where no child goes hungry, please consider making a donation today or sharing our mission with your network.
Together, we can make a difference. Let’s give every child the chance they deserve.
Thank you for your support!
Warmly,
Kelly Baik, Helen Stambelos

How is it spent!
Impact of a $6 Donation
A donation of $6 can make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in need. Here’s how it breaks down:
- Cost per Child per Day: $12 (for two nutritious meals).
- With $6, you can cover half of the daily meal cost for one child.
Daily Impact
-
$6: Feeds 1 child for half a
day.
- This means the child will receive one nutritious meal, helping to meet their basic nutritional needs.
Cumulative Impact
While $6 alone covers half a day, consistent donations can have a larger impact:
- $12: Fully feeds 1 child for one day (two meals).
- $30: Feeds 2 children for one day.
- $180: Feeds 1 child for an entire month.
Every Dollar Counts
Even a small donation like $6 contributes to reducing child hunger and improving health and educational outcomes. Together, we can create a brighter future for these children!
