Testimonials

“We have participated in meal programs where we had to go to the schools for the meals. It was harder to do those because my work schedule often made it difficult to pick up those meals. The shelf milk has been amazing. Nothing has gone to waste!”

"As a busy working family, my husband is in school full time, I work, plus we have 2 kids this program has really helped us so much. Not only has it helped us save money, but it's been helpful showing our kids better eating habits. Preparing for a busy family can be hard, and we are working on not eating junk. So these meals helped us, they were portion sized, really delicious, and ready to eat."

"This program has saved me so much stress and money and allowed our boys to eat so they are full rather than us having to limit food due to cost of groceries right now. I shared this with a few other families as well who have signed up and gotten help through this program."
