Home healthcare CEO, and nurse Barbara Almon has paid the lunch bill for all students attending Mt. Zion School in metro Atlanta, Georgia for an entire day to highlight the need for a national effort to provide a free lunch for all students in America for the entire year. Ms. Almon’s actions come as a result of her be made aware that students at the school were being denied a full meal due to the inability of their parents to provide the .40 cents to $2.65 daily for lunch. According to the Mt. Zion website, there are nearly two dozen rules and regulations regarding the students receiving a full lunch meal, which is common throughout the United States. Ms. Almon started a home healthcare business from scratch which is now a multi-million dollar business.
Ms. Almon is encouraging other business leaders to join in her effort for other local schools in metro Atlanta with the “Take A Day” initiative and pay for lunch for the entire student body for one day.

According to experts on childhood hunger, 25% of American school children go to bed hungry each night and suffer from malnutrition. The dire state of children and hunger in America is further verified by the shocking email from the principal of Mt. Zion school citing the level of grinding poverty that the students live in on a daily basis.
Ms. Almon is initiating a Georgia and nationwide plan calling on all to donate $1 dollar to provide school lunches for the states K-12 students for the remainder of the year and to bring attention to the large field of 2020 candidates for the need to solve the problem immediately.

Numerous media reports indicate that Hollywood greats such as Ben Affleck, Tyler Perry, and Scarlet Johannson are already involved in efforts to end hunger in America through organizations such as Feeding America.Â
Ms. Almon and the organizations she is working with will be presenting a blueprint that provides for all American school students receiving three free meals a day.
