Without food, cognitive thinking declines and students don't do well in school. Having a nourishing meal is always part of student success. Thank you for this partnership.

We did not expect this to be so popularβ€”we ran out of food! We are short of vegetarian food on the campus, and students love the food you are serving.

Stories from students we serve

It provides me with energy to study and be productive throughout the entire day. It made me incredibly happy that I have something to eat.
Community College Student, Foothill College, Los Altos
These delicious meals are nourishing and free, which are two things that can be difficult for some college students to acquire together. It gives me a morale boost and makes me feel ready to learn without having to worry if I'm going to be able to eat well today.
Community College Student, Evergreen Valley College
These meals make my college life better by saving money, reducing stress, and giving me more time to focus on my studies.
Community College Student, Foothill College, Sunnyvale
I budget my lunch every day as I really don’t have that much. I am really glad I came here and I am going to be full!
Community College Student, De Anza College
It definitely feels like home as if your mom is cooking for you.
