Give today to support Austin ISD Nutrition & Food Services
Austin ISD Nutrition & Food Services are committed to providing healthy food access for all students. Our charging and courtesy meal policies are in place to ensure no student goes without a balanced meal, regardless of their account balance or payment status. This initiative allows members of the community to contribute funds to help cover the negative balance of student meal accounts.
Thank you for setting this up.
Kids deserve to have a healthy lunch every day and not worry about paying for them. They should be focused on learning and not whether they will be able to eat at lunch time. If a parent is struggling to keep their child's account current then I am more than happy to help them since it's not the child's fault.
Because no one should go hungry.
I am giving in honor of Rosie the lunch lady at my elementary school in the 1970s. Rosie never let anyone walk away hungry. NEVER. She just smiled and reached into her purse and just covered it. God bless you Rosie. We need you more than ever.
Because I was a "school-lunch" kid in Austin back in the 80's. I never experienced lunch debt and no other child should either.
My father is turning 80 in July - I believe this is a good way to honor him!
