MySchoolBucks Wants to Help Grow Your School Nutrition Program!

Written by Christoph Grosse | Jul 13, 2017 12:06:00 PM

The 2017-18 school year is almost here! You and your staff are ready to start another year of serving students healthy meals everyday. What if you had more funds to promote your program and boost participation? MySchoolBucks and Heartland School Solutions are excited to offer Growth Grants for the start of the 2017-18 school year!

How does it work?

Up to $1,000 is now available to K-12 school districts using MySchoolBucks for meal payments. Simply complete a grant application and share your idea!  Tell us how you would use these additional dollars to kick start your year with a focus on encouraging the use of MySchoolBucks for payments.

How could your school use a Growth Grant?

  • Create your own signs or flyers for your meal program
  • Provide co-branded uniforms for your staff
  • Create contests to promote school meals and MySchoolBucks sign ups
  • Host grade specific programs to increase adoption with parents and students (K-2 or 6th grade and up)

…the possibilities are endless!

Use the funds in sync with your parent materials (flyers, postcards and magnets) to communicate the ease of MySchoolBucks at back to school events, student registration nights, and fall programs. 

Be sure to visit the Growth Grant application page today for a chance to receive up to $1000 to kick start your meal program in the new school year.
