Lunchboxes of Love is a student-led kindness initiative bringing joy to children undergoing medical treatment at Ronald McDonald House and Shriners Children's Hospital in Tampa.
Each lunchbox is filled with healthy snacks, activities, and personalized messages of hope from students.
Together, we're creating moments of happiness for kids facing tough medical challenges.
To spread joy, hope, and encouragement to children facing medical challenges while supporting healthy, safe home environments for families returning from treatment.

Help create safe, healthy home environments
Unite students in making a real difference
From fundraising to delivery, here's how we bring joy to families in need
Each $20 donation funds a McDonald's lunchbox meal and a Lunchbox Kindness Card for a Farnell student.
Farnell students receive and enjoy the McDonald's meal at school along with a blank Kindness Card.
Students decorate the Kindness Card with artwork and encouraging messages, and optionally upload a photo using the QR code.
The decorated Kindness Cards are delivered to children at Ronald McDonald House Tampa or Shriners Children's Tampa.

Your support creates a ripple effect of positive change

Children undergoing medical treatment often feel isolated and scared. A simple message of encouragement can brighten their day and give them hope during difficult times.
Donations also help provide air filters, cleaning supplies, and safety kits to create safe, healthy home environments for families returning from treatment.
Medical care creates financial strain on families. Your support helps ease their burden and allows them to focus on what matters most—their child's recovery.
This project teaches Farnell students the power of kindness and community service while making a real, tangible difference in the lives of local families.
Whether you donate one lunchbox or sponsor the entire project, you're making a meaningful difference in a child's life.
