Littlehampton Lunchbox joined: West Sussex Crowd 7 years ago

We will be providing lunches over the summer holiday for children who attend The Littlehampton Academy and usually receive free school meals.
Sorry this project was unsuccessful, we did not reach our fundraising goal.
For many children who receive free school meals their school lunch is the only decent meal of the day. During the school holidays this meal is unavailable, and for many families the need to provide an extra five meals a week per school-age child can push them over the edge of what they can afford. The Littlehampton Lunchbox project aims to relieve that pressure throughout the summer holiday by providing 10 meals per fortnight to each student at The Littlehampton Academy who receives free school meals.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
We don't believe that anyone in our community should go hungry, and that includes children. We're running this pilot scheme with The Littlehampton Academy in order to provide lunches for their students who have free school meals during term-time but whose families may not be able to afford the extra food during the summer holiday.
