We at Tied Together are gearing back up to pay for students who can't afford to pay for school lunch as we've done in the past.

**Please share this! It helps so much!**
If you are unfamiliar, here is the an explanation of what we do and why.
Henry County Schools provide free lunch for those students who meet lower income requirements. Above these requirements, the student will have to pay roughly $2 per meal. Henry County Schools do not meet Title 1 requirements in order to be able to provide free lunch for every child.
**Do not beat up the school system. They cannot skirt around regulations put in place**
Students who cannot afford the paid lunch will get a free version that looks notably different.
Some students a embarrassed by this and will refuse to eat in order to avoid being ostracized by their peers.
𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻!
Students are identified by school admins and those who do not qualify for free lunch 𝗮𝗻𝗱 cannot afford to pay for lunch are taken care of by us.
And none of their peers ever know.
They just get to eat ☺
To take care of one meal it is just $2.60, a month $52 and for the school year $468
Elementary students are allowed about $5 worth of lunch debt before they get the free version. Middle School $2.60. High School none.
We do not pay debts. We take care of the children moving forward.
𝗔𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂!
Please consider making a donation of any size to ensure our students eat.
The have enough going on. Let's take hunger off the plate.
As a note: the US government paid for every child to have free lunch during the height of the pandemic. That program is over now.
