We are a broad and mighty coalition with the mission to provide school meals to all Wisconsin students.

Mission:

The Wisconsin Healthy School Meals for All Coalition advocates for all K-12 students by providing nutritious and free school meals throughout the school day. Our mission is to inspire, empower, and support healthy school meal champions to take action by expanding access to healthy school meals with no charge, and to co-create a school-based food system for common good. We believe that school meals are fundamental to student success and students shouldn’t have to worry about a bill or meal charge.

Crivitz School District Parent:

“We don’t qualify for reduced or free lunch. With inflation, we are struggling to pay bills, buy food & don’t qualify for assistance. I’d love knowing they get balanced meals while not at home .”

Heather DuBois Bourenane, Wisconsin Public Education Network:

“Our job is to create the conditions necessary for every child to thrive in our public schools - this starts with the basics. Let’s work together to provide healthy school meals for all.”

Marty Lee, Waushara County Food Pantry:

“Our children learn best when hunger is not part of the curriculum.”

Alexis Bylander, Food Research & Action Center:

“Serving school meals to all students at no cost would be a gamechanger for students, families, and schools, supporting students’ education and health & improving nutrition.”

Michael Gasper, School District of Holmen:

“We provide other essential items for student learning like books, lockers, and desks, but we need to ensure one of the most important and basic needs a student has to learn, nutrition, is also provided for all students!”
