Sometimes the smallest actions can lead to monumental changes.

In 2006, many schools and PTOs worked directly with local restaurants to offer special or fun lunch days. The grammar school Michelle’s children attended had a similar program, and she became involved in helping a local restaurant deliver lunches to the school. What seemed like a small role quickly revealed how much work it took for the principal to manage everything on her own.
Michelle offered to take on that coordination, becoming the point of contact between the restaurants and the school. Relieving the principal of that responsibility made a meaningful difference for school staff, and the service was expanded to other local schools. Being closely involved in the day-to-day logistics offered a clear view into how lunch actually played out at schools and restaurants, shaping how the service evolved. When a local park district camp reached out a couple years later, they were looking for a dependable, fully managed restaurant-based lunch program. At the time, no such model existed, so we got to work building it. What began as helping coordinate special lunch days for schools and PTOs evolved into an entirely different approach to school lunch. Kiddos grew into a lunch service designed for the way families live today, offering comfort, flexibility, and reliability. At its core, Kiddos remains focused on breaking away from old assumptions about school lunch and creating a program with something for everyone, every day. Today, Kiddos supports schools across the country with a lunch experience kids are excited about and parents and schools trust. |
