COLORADO SPRINGS — A coalition of faith-based groups has offered to contribute the $124,229 needed to continue providing free breakfasts for needy school children if the state can’t find the money.
The legislature’s Joint Budget Committee voted this month to end the free breakfasts because of the state’s budget shortfall. Low-income students might have to start paying 30 cents a meal after March when the funding runs out. But the Community Roundtable in Colorado Springs is prepared to provide the money.
