When Jeff Lew heard that kids at his son’s school were being publicly shamed for having outstanding lunch debt, he knew he had to act. Once he started to research more about the issue, Jeff learned that it was actually a widespread problem. He had the idea to launch a GoFundMe campaign to erase lunch debt in his son’s school, which he accomplished very quickly. So then he thought, why not the whole district? And then the whole city?
