Step Up Suncoast

We're celebrating School Lunch Hero Appreciation Day and the nutrition managers, cooks, and transporters who keep our kitchens running and our students fueled for success! This dedicated team plans, cooks, and transports a wide variety of nutritious meals to over 600 students daily! 🧑‍🍳🍽️

Students at our Rise and Shine Early Learning centers receive breakfast, lunch, and snack every school day — that's over 1,800 dishes prepared and delivered daily!

We highlighted our appreciation for them in true Mario style because they are the real superstars of our food world! 🍄🍌⭐

Take a look within and join us at our event this Saturday, April 18. From 10am to noon, children of all ages can participate in a number of activities that encourage self-reflection, including self-portrait painting and mirror play. We'll be at DeSoto County Library, located at 125 Hillsborough Ave, Arcadia, FL 34266.
