Donations and Refunds

MEAL ACCOUNT DONATIONS/REFUNDS

All meal account balances (positive and negative) automatically rollover each school year.

If an account has a credit (positive) balance, patrons have the following options:

  • Request the funds be donated to pay off negative balances.
  • Request a refund. Please note, checks are sent in the mail within 4–6 weeks. Depending on the volume of requests, it may take more time to process.
  • If you do nothing, the funds will remain in the account for future purchases. Please note: Inactive accounts with a credit balance (two consecutive years) are reported to the Oregon Unclaimed Property Division.

If an account has an owing (negative) balance, please choose from one of the following payment options:

  • Bring cash or check (payable to Portland Public Schools) to the PPS Nutrition Services at the District office.
