The suburbs lead the state of Minnesota in the number of missed meals during the summer. The greatest opportunity to fight hunger is by helping deliver meals to students during those months. This year, staff and volunteers delivered nearly 25,000 meals and 11,000 snack packs across 5 Dakota County School Districts, to 27 neighborhoods, 5 days a week!!
Thank you to all volunteers, partners, and school staff who helped make the 2023 Mobile Lunchbox season so successful. We can’t wait to see everyone again in 2024. Have a safe and happy school year!!
