Nourishing Young Minds: A New Partnership Between United Way Centraide North East Ontario and Cobs Bakery
As the back-to-school season approaches, ensuring that children start their day with a nutritious breakfast becomes more crucial than ever. United Way Centraide North East Ontario is excited to announce a new partnership with Cobs Bakery, located at Century Centre Plaza in North Bay, to ensure programs and services are in place that provide basic needs, like nutritious food, for those experiencing hard times.
From August 1, 2024, to September 31, 2024, Cobs Bakery will donate $1.00 to United Way’s Community Fund for every loaf of their high-fiber bread sold. This partnership not only promotes healthy eating habits but also contributes to the well-being of our community's children.
Why Breakfast Matters
Research shows that a nutritious breakfast is key to a child’s success in school. Here are some compelling reasons why:
Improved Concentration - Children who eat a healthy breakfast are better able to concentrate and focus during school lessons. This can lead to improved academic performance and better grades.
Enhanced Energy Levels - A nutritious breakfast provides the energy children need to engage in physical activities and participate in school.
Better Behavior - Students who start their day with a balanced meal are less likely to experience mood swings and behavioral issues, creating a more positive classroom environment.
Long-term Health - Developing healthy eating habits early sets the foundation for long-term health and wellness, reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

By choosing Cobs Bakery's high-fiber bread, you’re not only providing your family with a nutritious option but also supporting United Way’s mission to ensure that every child has the opportunity to succeed.
