What Is the Angels School Lunch Program?

The Angels School Lunch Program supports children who arrive at school without lunch, helping ensure no child goes hungry during the school day.

What began with a single school in 2017 has grown into a program supporting multiple schools across the region. Each week, our team prepares, packs, and delivers ready-to-eat lunches that teachers can give to students who need them — quietly, respectfully, and without stigma.

Each school term, our team prepares fresh lunches every Wednesday. These lunches are wrapped, frozen, and packed with snacks before being collected by participating schools.

Schools store the lunches in their onsite freezers. When a teacher notices a student without food, they simply hand them an Angels lunch — no questions asked, no barriers, just support when it’s needed most.

How the Program Works

What’s in an Angels Lunch?

Every lunch includes:

  • a fresh ham and cheese sandwich

  • a piece of fruit

  • two snacks (one homemade, like a muffin, and one packaged)

  • a juice popper when the budget allows

We focus on simple, nutritious items that are easy for kids to enjoy and easy for schools to store and distribute.

What Does It Cost?

Nothing. The program is completely free for students, parents, and schools.

How the Program Is Funded

The Angels School Lunch Program receives no government funding.
It exists through the combined effort of Angels Community Group and the generosity of individuals, families, businesses, and supporters who donate to keep the program running.

Every contribution helps us buy ingredients, prepare meals, and grow the program so we can reach more children.

This chart shows how many lunches each school is provided with weekly.

On average, the program provides approximately 155 lunches each week, at a cost of around $170

How Ride to Provide Supports the School Lunch Program

Ride to Provide isn’t just a great day out — it’s one of the biggest fundraisers for the Angels School Lunch Program. Every registration, donation, raffle ticket and sponsorship from the ride helps us deliver fresh, nutritious lunches to children across more than 20 local schools.

By taking part in the ride, you’re helping ensure no child has to get through the school day hungry. It’s community spirit in action, and one of the reasons the lunch program continues to grow each year.
