Greater Philadelphia Schools Get Smart Lunches
Starting this school year, online company Smart Lunches is providing healthy meals
for students in the greater Philadelphia area. The Boston-based company already
delivers its meals to more than 140 elementary and middle schools, summer
camps, and year-round daycare and early childhood education centers in southern
New England. The company now makes daily deliveries to the Philadelphia region's
inaugural partner schools, including Benchmark School and Media-Providence
Friends School in Media, Pa., and Chesterbrook Academy Elementary School in
West Chester, Pa. Parents and staff go online to order a variety of hot and cold
meals, snacks and drinks from menus automatically customized for their school
calendar as well as their individual taste preferences and food allergies. While the
company contracts directly with parents at these schools, it gives back a share of
its annual revenues to the facilities as part of the partnership.
