nutrition for all
Proudly Supporting KickStart for Kids
At Veghead, our mission is simple: to make it easier for families to eat more veggies. But we also believe that good nutrition shouldn’t depend on postcode, income, or circumstance — even though, far too often, it does.
The data shows that families on lower incomes are disproportionately represented in food-insecure households. These are the kids who are most likely to miss out on fresh food, and who face the greatest barriers to healthy eating.
That’s why, from day one, we knew we wanted to partner with a charity working directly in this space. We were genuinely delighted to find KickStart for Kids, who provide 60,000 breakfasts and 10,000 lunches every week to underprivileged children across South Australia.
Through our partnership, our veggie-packed mini muffins now feature in their school lunch program — helping thousands of Aussie kids enjoy more vegetables every week.
When you choose Veghead, you’re not just nourishing your own family. You’re helping nourish another one too.

A confronting need...
A recent report found that: 1 in 5 Australian children live in a food-insecure households, that many children go an entire day each week without any fresh food, and, in severe cases... some children go a whole day with no food at all. -
