Every Lunch Matters Provides Food Vouchers To Hungry Students In LBUSD
My stepsister, Mary Sramek, founded Every Lunch Matters when she realized students were going hungry in LBUSD. The policy of the district is to restrict students who do not have money or credit to a milk & a piece of fruit. She was determined to make it easy to help hungry kids at school. Your donation can be made to your school of choice. If your choice has received enough donations to satisfy the needs of the hungry students at that particular site for a month, your donation will be redirected to the “most needy” category. 100% of your tax deductible donations go towards food vouchers for hungry students. Partnership opportunities available. Email EveryLunchMattersLB@gmail.com.
 
 
Surrogates Needed
Stephanie’s company is unique in that she will either a) refer candidates to agencies that she has pre-vetted and pre-negotiated top compensation with OR b) she will match you directly with her intended parents through her Fertility Vault program, a program that caters to clients in the public eye with a specific need for privacy. Surrogates are usually compensated minimum around $45,000+, with a generous benefits package. There are basic qualifications (first one being you have to have had a child already) but she can walk you through them or you can just apply. As you know, my brother and brother in law are dads because of an amazing surrogate, so I felt compelled to share about this! Email surrogates@familymatchconsulting.com for more info!
