Pay Off an MCPS Child’s Lunch Debt This Holiday Season

December 11, 2024

This holiday season, consider ways to help MCPS students pay off their student lunch debt. In FY2024, “Dine with Dignity seeks to raise $170,000 to settle a fraction of the more than $700,000 unpaid meal debt accrued by MCPS students.”

Former MCPS Students Can Donate Their Balance

If your child(ren) attended a MoCo school, you can SHARE the balance of their money with those with debt by sending an email to:   DFNSHelpDesk@mcpsmd.org

Let them know that you would like to donate the balance of your child(ren)’s account.

Include your student’s first and last name, their date of birth; the last school they attended; and their Student ID number if it is known.
