Dear Providence Hall Community,

I hope this message finds you well.

As many of you are aware, negative lunch balances are a significant challenge not only here at Providence Hall but in schools everywhere. I am pleased to announce that we now have a fundraising page live on AllforLunch.org dedicated specifically to addressing this issue.

You can access the fundraising page at: www.AllforLunch.org/ProvidenceHall. The donation form on this landing page is unique to our school, ensuring that any contributions made will be allocated directly to us. I want to emphasize that 100% of donations received will go directly back to our office to pay off school lunch debt, and there are no associated fees or costs with the program.

Here is a Facebook link as well as an Instagram: Please share with everyone you know.

Thank you for your support and generosity. Let's come together as a community to tackle this challenge and ensure that every student has access to nutritious meals.

This opportunity is for current Juniors!
