The School Nutrition Program is a self-sufficient program supported by two primary revenue sources: federal reimbursements for students eligible for free or reduced-price meals and funds collected from families not eligible for federal subsidies. As such, there are still some families in that are in the bubble where they do not qualify for free/reduced meals and/or are facing extenuating circumstances in their families. Many community organizations and individuals donate funds to the School Nutrition Program to assist families in need who may have an unpaid balance. We apply those donations to accounts of families who have communicated with the District about their hardship.
All donations towards the Belgrade School District Angel fund are tax deductible 81-6000431.

Giving *especially* because a school board member (I’m hoping/thinking it was Brian Heck) so wrongly said at the end of school year meeting, about the lunch debt and his thought that parents had nice phones but wouldn’t pay for school lunches…“Maybe we can do some kind of collective group shaming?” Happy to give to support our community how we can.
