Raise money without sacrificing nutrition

We give back as part of our regular hot lunch program

The Lunch Lady contributes over $500,000.00 to Canadian schools annually through our hot lunch service. How does it work?

  • We share a portion of our sales with the groups we serve. This is part of our promise when a school signs up for regular hot lunch service.
  • Contributions can be made to your school or charitable cause of choice.
  • No administration required. We fully manage fundraising as part of our regular hot lunch service.
  • We offer other ways to fundraise. Just ask us about DIY or offering our healthier options through the school’s own hot lunch program or managed ordering site.

Learn about all the different ways you can host a healthier, delicious lunch that gives back.
