DONATIONS TO CHILD NUTRITION

Community can ‘Share the Love’ to provide School Meal Assistance
 
There are many negative lunch account balances remaining for students from the 2023-2024 school year. The Perry Public Schools Child Nutrition department asks that all outstanding balances be paid off by July 1, 2024. 
 
While many families qualify for free or reduced-price school meals, there are still several families who don’t meet the income eligibility guidelines and struggle to pay student meal balances. School meals are a great deal, but the cost can really add up.
 
The Perry Schools Child Nutrition Department offers the opportunity for individuals and organizations interested in helping students in need cover unpaid lunch balances. Donations go into a ’Share the Love’ account. Funds are distributed to negative lunch accounts to assist Perry families who are facing hardship and are unable to make full payments on their child’s account. 
 
Whether it is a one-time donation or if patrons decide to give monthly, a donation of any size helps makes a significant impact and provides relief to many local families during challenging times. 
 
Perry Schools is appreciative of the individuals and organizations who share our vision of overall student success and have contributed to this fund in the past. 
 
For those interested in donating to the Child Nutrition ’Share the Love’ account, donations can be mailed to the following address or dropped off at Perry High School. Donations to Child Nutrition are accepted at anytime throughout the year. 
 
For reference, breakfast and lunch for one student is $5.25 per day.
 
Please make checks payable to "Perry Public Schools.
