My Green Lunch - Covid19- Emergency Meal Program
Donation protected
Mission:
My Green Lunch – a school lunch catering company in the Santa Clara County has lost 100% of our business due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The shutdown has left our 3,500 square foot kitchen and our fleet of 5 delivery vans underutilized. Now we are shifting our focus to provide safe and nutritious “sealed meals” to people in need within the Bay Area, Calif. With this in mind, we have officially partnered with the Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) and Loaves & Fishes Family Kitchen. We are excited to provide assistance to local organizations extremely knowledgeable and passionate about feeding those who need it most.
Being a kitchen and working with food we have strict hygiene (hand washing) rules in place for both personal and health code reasons. We are following our government's rules of Covid-19 prevention practices including and not limited to social distancing and sanitization. Additionally, we are doing health checks on our employees prior to entering our building.
This is a call to action for anybody that wants to directly help feed people in the Bay Area during this Covid-19 crisis. Keeping yourself fed via delivery services and grocery stores that most Americans rely on is a necessary task that can't easily be completed while avoiding other people. As more Americans are quarantined, sheltered in placed, or practicing the recommended social distancing, supply chains will come under stress, people will still need food, and you can help fill that need.
Goal:
For every $5 donated, you will be providing 1 meal to someone in need. Our goal of $300,000 will enable My Green Lunch to provide up to 60,000 meals over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. We can produce 3,000-5,000 meals a day, so with the $300,000 this ensures our ability to provide our target number of meals.
What your support means:
Our role as food producers is critical, and likely to become much more so during the next few months. Everyone's health and safety is important to us and we want to continue to provide the community with safe, nutritious, and healthy food.
These are unprecedented times and we need to come together as a community to ensure meal relief. The demand for emergency meals is continuing to climb and the more donations we receive, the more people we will all be able to collectively help. The people in the Bay Area need assistance and the service that we provide is VITAL. The time for positive change is now and you can be the difference with as little as 5$ donated.
In community spirit,
The My Green Lunch Team
