Monique Coleman Joins America’s Second Harvest

High School Musical star Monique Coleman joins America’s Second Harvest and ConAgra Foods Foundation to Pack Lunch Bags for Hungry Kids in LA on Tuesday.

The event was held to raise awareness of the significant increase in demand that foodbanks across the country are currently experiencing.

Monique handed out her exclusive “Fight Childhood Hunger” lunch bag to the first 500 kids who packed shopping bags full of food products donated by ConAgra Foods Foundation. Coleman designed the special edition lunch bags as part of a national retail campaign benefiting America’s Second Harvest.

“Kids are getting ready to head back to school and it’s important to ensure that they have full stomachs with the balanced meals they need to reach their full potential,” said Coleman. “I hope our efforts today inspire kids across the country to organize their own food drives to help hungry kids.”

GO MO MO :)

She’s a sweetheart!

everyone suck expect nessa. YOU ALL SUCK! nessa is the ******* best!

Monique is a class act.

Monique is a class act.

It’s wonderful to see that Mo has the care and the passion that it takes to what to help those who don’t or have little enough of the food they need.

I’m 57 years old so I’m going to say I’m thankful for these kids for working for a good cause. I know there are those of you out there who will say she is doing it for good PR, well, I say look at Mo and listen to some of the things she has said in the past. What it boils down to is that she could do other things but she chose this, BECAUSE SHE CARES.

God go with you Mo.

good going for monique. she is such a well rounded individule. KEEP IT UP!

monique is the best.she cares go momo

monique is the best.she cares go momo

That is sweet of her

Monique is awesome to do this. What a cute baby she is holding. Huggable looking!!! That is a great charity to be working for, and I’m glad she is taking time out to do it, especially because of her young age. Most young people are very self absorbed with clothes and make-up and don’t care, or do it because their agent is making them, and then it shows in their faces that they are bored. I wish Monique would part with those heavy bangs though. Her face is way to pretty to be laden down be those.

What a nice thing to do. Very generous of her, giving her time to a charity like this.

aww, she is soo sincere unlike most celebs who go around doing silly things just so that they’ve got the media’s attention (miley) :P
-keep up the good work monique.

Monique Coleman is the only High School Musical Star who is ACTIVE in child advocacy. She is an inspiration. Child advocacy is not new to her. She has been doing these types of things for children for a while now, but she’s just now getting a smidget of coverage.

Thanks Jared.

mo is beautiful and haters stop hating because one, she is beautiful inside and out. If she is so fake, then she has been fake even before she was famouse cause she did this before her fame. Monique you are beautiful and your personality shines like a light (in a good way) god is good mo and you will geta bigger blessing you can’t even hold if you just believe him nd worship him. Girl you are a good 16 i mean 27 year old OOps you look 16 tho, woman and a great roll model for african american girls and others. I am 12 years old and African American and you rae my top roll model. Girl keep praying and doing your thing cause god is watching and hasn’t forgotten about you sweetie. God bless, Bye

I love MoMo, she’s so caring. I’m proud of her. Go MoMo!!

It’s great how someone caring like mo will give up her time to do something like this. All i can say is may God be with her and she will succeed in life doing what is right i know she will have a good future. Love you mo and God bless you!!

I love Monique Coleman!!!!!!
She has this genuine light about her, like an invisable halo she just shines everywhere she goes. She beautiful, and from so sweet and loving. Keep you head p Mo and don’t drop it for anyone, because behind every sucessful person is a pack of haters who would love to c you fall!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much Just Jared….Cause we don’t hear much about Monique. And I’m glad that every body now sees how much of a beautiful person she is, not just on the outside, but the inside too. And f–k the haters cause it doesn’t matter how kind, beautiful or talented a person is they still gonna hate, cause it’s nothing but jealously. : P
