Statement From Tusk/Montgomery Philanthropies Regarding Governor Wolf's Approval Of Critical Funds For School Breakfast For Low Income Students

NEW YORK, Feb. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is a statement from Tusk/Montgomery Philanthropies

"We're living in a time of tremendous uncertainty and anxiety. Voters across western Pennsylvania made that abundantly clear last November and the millions of women who marched on every continent made that equally clear last month. But no one feels more anxious than children who don't have enough to eat and their parents, who don't have enough money to put food on the table. And no matter your politics, hungry children are hungry children. So when someone steps up to help them, they deserve tremendous credit and praise. Governor Wolf's decision to provide significantly more funding for school breakfast means hundreds of thousands of kids won't start their day hungry. It means they can concentrate better at school. It means government is doing something real and tangible to make their lives better. We're grateful for his decision and hope the legislature feels the same way."
