Food For Thought Software Solutions @fftsolutions_
Our online platform ensures that every child receives a nutritious lunch at school every day of the week.food-for-thought.ca Nova Scotia Joined November 2022
Did you know that our software makes it possible for parents to order a healthy lunch for their child, anonymously? Every child receives the same lunch, and sits at the same table–no questions asked!
Calling all burger lovers! Starting tomorrow until April 3rd, we will be participating in Burger Week in partnership with Nish Eats! Two dollars from every burger sold will be donated to the Antigonish Food Bank and the Antigonish School Plus program!
Food insecurity is a harsh reality for many Canadians. More than 4 million people rely on food banks every year. Our software has been used to launch province-wide school lunch programs in P.E.I., New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in over 130 schools. That's over 750, 000 meals!
Packing school lunches can be a daunting task for parents– from figuring out what to make, to making sure it's healthy and tasty. Need a break from having to come up with new ideas week after week? Check with your school to see if a student lunch program is an option.
For me, International Women's Day is a time to acknowledge female founders and entrepreneurs in Atlantic Canada who are elevating the start-up ecosystem in our region and creating innovative solutions- Melissa MacMaster, Co-founder.
We are thrilled to be partnering with Everyone Eats NB and Jobs Unlimited to bring healthy, wholesome meals to the students at Royal Road Elementary in Fredericton! They will be using our software to automate their lunch program, making healthy eating easy and affordable.
Your family's privacy is very important to us! When you order lunches for your children using our software, there is no identifying process, money exchanged or names of students retained. Every child picks up the same meal, and discretion is maintained every time.
We just launched a partnership with the Annapolis Valley Regional Center for Education who will be using our software for their school lunch program. That means more children will have access to affordable, healthy lunches 🙌
Did you know we just launched a new feature on our platform? Parents can now donate a meal to child attending their school! This feature allows schools to reach more children and provide equitable access to healthy meals🙌
Our pilot program with @EveryoneEatsNB runs until June, and we’re in the process of finishing another proposal to include more schools! More schools, means more children have access to healthy school meals 🤗
How easy is it to order a nourishing lunch for your child? Just follow the prompts on our website and a healthy meal will be delivered to your child or to another child in need! Our process is intuitive and convenient for families who need a break from the daily grind.
The end of financial support during Covid, food inflation and flat wages are all contributing to increased reliance on food charity, which include Food Banks, faith based programs, schools and community centres. Our mission is to ensure no child goes hungry.
The number of people served per month by non profit organizations dispensing free food is expected to increase by another 60% in 2023, on top of 134% growth in 2022. We're helping to fill an important gap by providing one, healthy meal a day to our school-aged children.
Hearty corn chowder, tasty shepherd's pie and delicious tuna melts are just some of the lunches available this month at Kings County Academy. We helped automate their ordering process with our software and the PTA runs the school lunch program. A partnership made in heaven!
According to Food Banks Canada, 7 million Canadians reported going hungry at least once between March 2020 and 2022—that's more than one in five people across the country. Our solution ensures every child eats a healthy lunch, every single day. No questions asked!
