You get the kids off to school, she’ll pack the lunch!
(Washington post)


For those dual-income and time-straved parents, making lunch every morning is big a deal. To help these parents, Monica Tomasso founded Health e-Lunch Kids. Inc, which makes completely healthy lunch and delivers directly to the kid’s school. The lunch they are providing are low-suger, low-fat and preservative-free boxed so that the parents no longer have to worry about their children’s lunch.


Monica Tomasso came up with this idea while working at Exxonmobil in Fairfax, where she’d spent 13 years in marketing, financial analysis and business development. She heard her colleagues complaining about the daily duty, making their offspring’s lunch everyday. Looking to leave the corporate world, she used her business background, self-taught nutrition know-how and some financial help from her father to create Health e-Lunch Kids.


Employees of a Springfield catering company prepare the meals each evening, and a courier service delivers them the next morning. The company typically delivers about 400 meals to 15 to 25 schools each weekday. She tries to expand her business in that area which includes Fairfax and Montgomery counties, but the local public schools have rejected the idea because they say her company would siphon off cafeteria business.


After reading this article, I thought we could actually try this in Handong. Since so many students are willing to eat at the cafeteria using their limited time, the school’s cafeteria is always crowded and you have to wait more than ten minutes wasting your precious lunch time. If it’s possible to found a Health e-Lunch company in Handong, we can accept orders though internet, prepare the ordered meal before lunch time and deliver it to each student’s classroom. This will prevent the outrageous chaos happening every lunch time.
