We are not able to make any changes to the order information after the cut-off date has passed and the restaurant has downloaded it from our site.
Part of our agreement with our vendors is that we do not make any changes to the order information after they receive the final order. Including adding a late order or cancelling an order.
What if my child is sick?
We do understand that you can not plan for this unfortunate circumstance. You are welcome to contact your school and make arrangements to pick up the order or it can be donated to another child.
My children go to 2 different schools, why are there Fun lunches on different dates or with different vendors?
Each school has a unique Fun Lunch Program. The order forms are created by your school’s volunteer lunch coordinator or parent council. They are responsible for selecting the vendors, menu options, pricing and dates.
There is a large selection of vendors available for the school lunch program, however it is up to your school to decide on which vendors they would like to offer for fun lunches.
Are there Healthier Vendor options?
There are many vendors registered with Healthy Hunger and there are certainly some very healthy options to choose from. Your school’s lunch coordinator or parent council decides which restaurants will be offered and the menu options available on the order forms. You are welcome to share any concerns or suggestions with us and we will pass your feedback along to the school.
Are there any fees when I order online?
Yes, there is a payment processing fee added to your order when you pay online. $0.30 + 3% of the total is charged every time a transaction is processed online using Visa, MasterCard. Please note that the 0.30+3% processing fees are non refundable.
Typically, these fees are paid by the merchant accepting payments. However, due to the low dollar value and high volume of orders associated with School Fun Lunches it is not feasible for your school or the restaurant to cover these costs. You will NOT be charged any taxes (GST/HST) for your orders.
Your school is aware of this and most schools will try to post several orders in advance so that the parents can place several orders on one transaction limiting the cost of fees.
