TCSA & Trent Food Services Launch New "Punch A Lunch" Program

The TCSA is excited to announce a new collaboration with Trent Food Services: "Punch a Lunch" meal cards launching on Monday, December 4th.

This new program will provide $150,000 in meal support for students yearly, and 800 students monthly. The TCSA has committed $70,000 towards this program, with Trent Food Services matching this amount for the program's first year of operation. This program provides students with $5 off any meal at an on-campus dining hall, including Traill College, and at The Seasoned Spoon. The cards can be redeemed five (5) times for a total of $25 off your meals. Simply hand your card to the cashier and a discount will be applied to your meal.

The TCSA will be distributing these cards through our existing One-Stop Chop food pantry appointments, through our Grocery Assistance Program, and at events that are focused on student health, wellness, and food security.

To make this program widely available to students, “Punch a Lunch: cards will be available at Trent International, FPHL, or your college office. Please check in with these offices to see how they will be distributing their cards.
