Our Goal
Austin ISD Nutrition & Food Services are committed to providing nutritious, appetizing meals that promote health, well-being and learning. Equity and food access are important district values, and being able to bring fresh, healthy and sustainably raised food to students all over the city is our focus.
How You Can Help
Austin ISD cafés serve over 80,000 meals per day. Around 700 courtesy meals that meet the same nutrition requirements as menued meals are served each day, which equates to a cost of over $350,000 each year that is covered by the District Food Service Department. This campaign allows individuals to contribute funds to help bring student meal accounts current.
How the Process Works
If students exhaust their meal account, there is a grace period during which the student can charge meals to his or her account. Elementary and middle school students may charge up to three meals and high school students may charge up to two meals. In the event a student reaches the maximum charge limit on his or her meal account, at the beginning of the lunch line the student will be provided a courtesy meal that meets the same nutrition requirements as all other meals offered. If a student has already selected a remibursable meal by the time he or she reaches the cashier, food service personnel allows the student to keep the tray.

I am giving because I was a child who received reduced lunch. We weren't "poor" but we did struggle to make ends meet at times. I was embarrassed that everyone knew who were there reduced and free lunch kids. Although, I was one of the fortunate kids who never went hungry it didn't make me feel good as a kid to be singled out or made fun of because I couldn't afford to pay the full price for food.

No child in this country of abundance should ever be hungry, let alone hungry in school.

If you have it to spare, always help those who do not. :-)

A hungry child can't learn. No child should be singled out in any way because he/she cannot afford to pay.
