The Anchorage School District and partner organizations are gearing up to provide food assistance to thousands of students.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - “Hungry kids don’t learn,” said Lindsey Salazar with ASD Student Nutrition. “They can’t concentrate.”“It’s very important that don’t need to worry about where their meals are coming from,” Salazar said in a recent interview, “and they can show up at school and have breakfast and lunch without having to pay for it.”
The Children Lunchbox program, which was established in 1995, has recently doubled in size — from serving lunch box meals to 250 students four years go to now about 500 students. “We’re just now starting to get the phone calls to say, ‘Hey, can you put us on the list to deliver meals?’” Lingle said.
