Dishes2U Welcomes New and Returning Schools to our Lunch Program

The new school year is in full swing, and we’ve been remarkably busy welcoming new and returning schools to the Dishes2U lunch program by attending back-to-school events.

Dishes2U is always involved in back-to-school events to help promote our lunch program, helping raise awareness of our offerings to both parents and schools. We often are accompanied by several of our local restaurant partners who take the opportunity to hand out samples and promote not only their involvement with Dishes2U but their own individual restaurants as well; a win-win for everyone! Our back-to-school events include live demos of the Dishes2U service, from how the service works to setting up an account and how to order lunches. Parents appreciate the hands-on demos and kids love to snack on the free samples available from several of our restaurant partners.

We also take the opportunity to let teachers know of the benefits extended to them through our program. Teachers and administrators can enjoy a lunch purchased by an appreciative parent; very popular, especially during Teacher Appreciation Week! We also let them know about the added benefit of adding their own kids to their Dishes2U account so that they too can enjoy our school lunch delivery program. Parents love being able to give a special “thank you” to those amazing teachers throughout the year. In addition, all staff members and their children who attend the school receive a discount on their lunches.

For those back-to-school events we’re unable to attend, we make sure that we provide all the materials needed for them to share with parents and teachers to make them aware of our program, providing instruction and an added $50 lunch credit bonus for sharing our services to their incoming students and parents in our absence.

Our restaurant partners are always invited to accompany us for these events. Kids and parents alike love sampling the delicious food offerings our trusted restaurant partners provide throughout the year. We’re excited about another school year and look forward to continuing to work with schools across the country.
