It’s National School Lunch Week, what you can do to help

It’s National School Lunch Week and Welch’s® Fruit Snacks has partnered with Feeding America to help kids in your area. National School Lunch Week is October 10th – October 14^th. Through October they’ve partnered with Feeding America to provide 1 million meals to kids who need them.

In honor of this week Welch’s® Fruit Snacks challenges parents to pack the ultimate school lunch. Now, we’re no Lunchbox Dad. Our version of a successful lunch is getting it made and in the box at least 10 minutes before the bus arrives. If I want to feel like Super Dad I’ll make it the night before and put a cape around my neck. I do envy the art and creativity that he does when it comes to their kid’s school lunches.

Even if you can’t make a themed lunch you can still be a hero to local kids though Feeding America and their partnership with Welchs Fruit Snack. Just buy any Welchs Fruit Snacks, take a photo of the packaging and then submit it. You can send it in by texting ‘lunch’ to 811-811or upload it to fillthelunchbox.com. For each photo receive Welchs will donate $1.0 to Feeding America.

Thank the lunch lady. Make the kids a great lunch and give them a special treat or two. Don’t forget to take a photo of your Welchs for a great cause.
