CHART (Community Health Assessment Resource Team) recently presented a check to the Clinton School District, allowing the district to pay off all lunch balances for students who attended Henry Elementary School during the 2022-2023 school year. This generous donation was made possible by the many different community business partners and community members who supported CHART’s golf tournament earlier this summer.
Many school children across the United States rely on school lunch programs to get a nutritious meal every day. However, some families struggle to pay for these lunches, resulting in negative lunch balances. These balances can quickly add up and put a financial burden on schools.
To help relieve this burden, Henry County CHART has created lunch balance donation programs. These programs allow parents and members of the community to donate money to help pay for negative lunch balances. If interested in donating to these programs, please reach out to Tyler Pulcini at 660-223-3210 or tyler.pulcini@lpha.mo.gov.
Thank you to CHART and the generous donors who made this donation possible.
