What is Healthy Hunger?

Dear Douglas Park Lions,

Healthy Hunger is a lunch fundraiser organised by the SCC. Families order directly on the Healthy Hunger website and the lunch will be delivered to your child’s classroom on the assigned day. Healthy Hunger lunch is one Friday a month September-June. The lunches are open to Grades 1-8; and select Fridays are open to Kindergarten students. 

We are also offering a Healthy Hunger treat day one Wednesday a month starting in October. This is only open to Grades 1-8. 

For the 2025-26 year, we are offering lunches by McDonald’s, Wok Box, Pita Pit, Subway, Boston Pizza, Barburrito, Popeye’s Chicken, A & W, Prairie Donair, and Dairy Queen. Some restaurants offer halal, dairy-free, vegetarian and gluten-free options. Please check on the Healthy Hunger menus for these options when you are placing your order. 

The treat selections will include DQ. Booster Juice, TCBY, Mr. Pretzels, and Swirl World.

• While you can place your order monthly, you also have the option to place orders for multiple months or the entire year. 

• Your orders can be updated or cancelled up until the deadline for that month. See the cancellation policy on the website.

Important Notes:

• Thank you for your orders! The SCC receives a portion of each order and all the funds raised support classroom activities and supplies.

• Please check your orders carefully to ensure you have placed one for your child(ren).

• Orders must be placed by the deadline. & No late orders are accepted. All payments are completed online (only)

• The SCC is limited to the restaurants and the restaurants’ menus posted on Healthy Hunger’s website. Therefore not all menu items found in brick & mortar/online stores are available. 

• A note about DQ. McDonald’s and A & W:

• The items you order are single items, not meals. For example, if you order a hamburger, it is just the hamburger (no fries). 

• *McDonald’s offers some meals, but also individual items. Please read the description carefully as the Happy Meals do not include fries.

• A&W’s chicken tenders are sold individually. (1 piece). Please select as many as you wish to add to your order

• On some days there are two vendors. Please take a look at both menus as some have been paired to provide vegetarian + non-vegetarian options. Many also have single items, such as fries, that can be added to your order. The lunch, no matter the vendor, will be provided to your child/children at the same time.
