Catering/Lunch
My Hot Lunchbox is the company who will be arranging lunches for the 2018-2019 school year. They work with restaurants like Streets of New York, Chick-fil-A, Senior Taco, Subway, Panda Express, Firehouse Subs, local bakeries, etc. The parent or the student order online ahead of time through a simple App, or website and the restaurant delivers the lunches packaged, with the scholars name on it.
Want to earn free lunches? Volunteer handing out lunch one day per week. You’ll earn credits in the system!
We’ll be providing one-on-one training to each parent if needed, but there is a video below that outlines how the ordering works.

FAQ:
WHAT IF I FORGET TO PACK A LUNCH FOR MY CHILD AND THEY DIDN’T ORDER LUNCH THE DAY BEFORE?
Each campus will be equipped with vending machines (with healthy choices) to help with any extra snacks, drinks, and the occasional “oops” morning.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO START RECEIVING DELIVERIES ONCE OUR SCHOOL OR BUSINESS HAS SIGNED UP?
Our lunch program can be implemented at any time during the year. It takes between 4 and 6 weeks to set up the program and to begin the monthly ordering process. The timeframe depends largely on if your organization would like to have area vendors that My Hot Lunchbox already has relationships with or if they would like to use new ones!
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO ENROLL IN THE MY HOT LUNCHBOX PROGRAM?
Your school or business doesn’t pay a dime to sign up for the My Hot Lunchbox program. As a matter of fact, we give teacher’s meal discounts and can set up a portion of the proceeds from your lunch orders to go back to your school as a fundraiser. Well deserved!
