OKCPS School Lunch Debt Paydown
I've read several articles about helping children with lunch fees around the nation and wanted to do something similar right here in OKC. When children are hungry, they don't perform as well in school, and a lack of money shouldn't be a barrier to great academic performance.

I'm starting this fund to raise money to payoff negative school lunch accounts. I would like to pay off as many accounts as I can, but for the sake of focus, I wanted to start with schools in the Oklahoma City district. When the campaign ends, and with whatever money is raised, I will donate it in its entirety to any children lunch accounts that need funding.
What better reason for raising money than hungry kid's bellies? Let's feed these students!
