​A healthy breakfast provides fuel for learning and the chance to succeed at school. At Saint Mary’s Academy in Edmundston, the school breakfast program recently received a big boost from Dejeunes Magiques – Magical Breakfasts. 

The organization donated $26,714 to 21 schools in the region and Saint Mary’s breakfast program was one of the beneficiaries. This generosity allows the school to continue to support students by providing them with an optimum start to the school day. 

Funds were raised through the sale of a recipe book – Les recettes de Pépère.  Project leaders were Carole Jalbert and Rejean Michaud. Dejeunes Magiques – Magical Breakfasts is a community-based organization located in northwestern New Brunswick. Sales of the recipe book totalled $55,000 before costs.
