Communication
is Key
Ongoing communication and collaboration between school staff, administration,
volunteers, students, and the committee is essential for continued success. The following
ideas will help to keep information flowing at the breakfast club:
Create a Breakfast Club Binder
Using the Build Them Up! Guide as a starting point, create a breakfast club binder to
store all the important information about the club. Be sure to continue adding new
documentation to the binder as the breakfast club evolves. The binder will ensure
continuity in program operation, should the program coordinator or another key person
leave unexpectedly.
Here are a few examples of what should be included
in the breakfast club binder
• Action plan, mission statement, and history of the program;
• C
ontact information, application, and agreement from Breakfast Club of Canada
and any other program funders;
• A
ny letters that have been distributed, such as newsletters, staff and student
surveys, parent letters, grant proposal template, etc.;
• Student allergies tracking sheet;
• Sample menus and recipes;
• F ood procurement documentation including the preferred local places to shop,
places the school has an account set up, where/ how to order food, stores that
offer special deals/discounts etc.;
• F ood donor information including contact information on where to access food
donations (e.g. Minute Maid coupons) and the best stores to redeem coupons;
• Breakdown of budget;
• All monthly reports and expenditure sheets;
• Volunteer information sheets and schedule;
• Food safety certificate and inspection reports;
• Successful fundraising ideas.
