Elevate Our City Foundation
We pay off unpaid school lunch balances for families in Grapevine-Colleyville ISD.
Our elementary schools are carrying more than $3,100 in unpaid lunch balances, and the number grows every month.
Raise $10,000 for local families.
We start with the elementary schools and then move on to the middle and high schools. Every dollar above event costs goes to the kids.
2026 goal: clear lunch balances in elementary schools, then the upper grades
