By Linda Parsons | Lunch Buddy Program Coordinator
The Lunch Buddy program has hit the ground running this fall. We are starting the school year with 12 new adult volunteer mentors and 59 returning adult volunteer mentors. We are working through the process of getting all of the pairs started this Fall.
This year we have added volunteers at 3 schools that have previously not had Lunch Buddy volunteers. This number includes 1 middle school in the district. We are now up to 16 schools that we serve.
Last year we were able to match 86 students with Lunch Buddy mentors and, at this rate, we will far exceed that number this year.
