Subject:Bringing a Free Lunch Program to [Your School Name]
Hi there, I'm a parent at [Your School Name]. Like many families, preparing school lunches every day can be a real challenge. I came across a free program called LunchUp (www.lunchup.ca) that helps parents solve this problem - I'd love to suggest it for our school. Here's a quick overview: - LunchUp is completely free for the school - no fees, no setup costs, nothing. - Parents order online and meals are delivered directly to each classroom at lunchtime. - Allergy safety is built in - parents set allergies once, and the system checks every order automatically. - Every meal is packed by class and labeled with the student's name, so distribution is very simple. - The school doesn't need to handle any payments or extra admin work - everything is automated. - Parents and the parent council get to choose the restaurants, so kids get food from places they already love. - As a bonus, the program can also help support school fundraising over time. I've cc'd the LunchUp team on this email. They can answer any questions and help get things set up whenever the school is ready. I think this would be a great addition for our school community. Would the parent council be open to exploring this? Thank you, [Your Name]

Common Questions

Does the school have to pay anything?

No. LunchUp is completely free for schools. No setup fees, no software fees, no monthly charges. Schools actually earn fundraising revenue from every order.

Does the school have to do extra work?

Almost none. Meals arrive pre-labeled with student names and grouped by classroom. A volunteer or senior student simply hands boxes to each class. There's no payment collection, no paperwork, and no order management.

Who chooses the restaurants?

Parents and the parent council work together to pick local restaurants kids love. You're not locked into generic meal options - choose the places your community already knows and trusts.

What if I don't know the parent council email?

No problem! You can send the email directly to the school office and ask them to forward it to the parent council. Or contact us at start@lunchup.ca and we'll help you connect.

What's the $100 credit for?

When your school officially launches with LunchUp, we add $100 in LunchUp credit to your account as a thank you. You can use it toward your children's lunch orders.
