Actor Jeff Bridges joins Montana Governor Bullock, school breakfast program founder on tour

In Montana, nearly 22 percent of children face food insecurity.

Bridges was touring the YMCA to see its after-school snack program and raise awareness for the Share Our Strength charity https://www.nokidhungry.org/problem/overview that launched the No Kid Hungry "Breakfast After the Bell" initiative.

The initiative highlights and supports the creative ways that states are connecting kids to the meals they need. A number of Montana schools are participating in the program.

Bridges is the national spokesperson for Share Our Strength , and Billy Shore, who was also a part of the tour, is the organization’s founder and CEO.
