Feed it Forward Donation Opportunity

Supporting Students at Fremont Middle School One Meal at a Time
No student should go hungry. No student should be shamed.
The Feed It Forward program provides a way for our community to support Fremont Middle School students by helping cover student meal debt ensuring every child has access to a healthy, dignified meal at school.

If you are a parent, community member, or business owner please consider donating to Feed it Forward.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Make a Donation
Community members, parents, and organizations can contribute in one of two ways:
  • Add funds through the LINQ online meal payment system (just like adding to your own student’s account).
  • Drop off cash or check at the Kuna School District Office or the Fremont Middle School Office.
Please indicate that the donation is for the Feed It Forward account at Fremont Middle School.

2. Funds Are Applied to Student Meal Debt
Your donation will be used to reduce or eliminate unpaid meal balances for Fremont Middle School students in need.

3. Students Receive Meals Without Shame
When students do not have enough funds in their account, the cafeteria cashier can discreetly use the Feed It Forward account so no student is denied a meal or singled out.

4. Guidelines for Use
To ensure funds help the most students:
  • Only full meals can be purchased with Feed It Forward funds.
  • No à la carte items (extra snacks, desserts, or drinks) will be covered.
  • Second meals are not eligible, as they are charged at the adult rate.
WHY IT MATTERS
  • Combats Hunger – Every student deserves access to nutritious food.
  • Supports Our Schools – Helps manage and reduce student meal debt.
  • Builds Community – Allows individuals to make a direct, local impact.
  • Promotes Dignity – No student experiences lunch shaming or food insecurity at school.
GET INVOLVED
Your contribution directly supports students.
Together, we can Feed It Forward one meal at a time..
 

Tutor.com

Tutor.com is an online service that connects students with live tutors to help them with schoolwork. Think of it like a library study room, but it's on the internet and you can get help any time of the day or night. It's designed to give students one-on-one help to understand tough subjects and finish their homework.
