We love kids with "food attitude"!
Want to create a healthier food environment at your school? We make it easy. Looking to fundraise? We can help. Hungry for more variety for the school’s own hot lunch program? We can do that, too! We’ve got 25+ years’ experience delivering hot lunches to schools in over 140 communities across Canada. Are we in your neighbourhood?
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.
