EDDIE’S STORY

When Eddie grew up with his mother, brother, and sister, a regular family meal was a tortilla with salt for seasoning. His loving mother worked hard, but making ends meet was almost beyond her. His dad was not in the picture. One day, Eddie came home from school to find his brother and sister hungry.

Texans Can Academies’ breakfast and lunch selections are designed to provide nutritious meals for growing children.
Our Café Can cafeterias participate in The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) which is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools and residential child care institutions. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to children each school day. The program was established under the National School Lunch Act, signed by President Harry Truman in 1946.
We offer FREE breakfast and lunch to all students, however all enrolled students must complete an application. Applications for free and reduced price meals are available on each campus web page. If you are not eligible now, you may apply any time during the school year if your circumstances change.

If you have any questions please contact our Café Can department at (214) 875-4104
