Childcare center
"For the past four years we have been with ITAVTFOC. I have no complaints! I love the food, it comes hot and ready to serve every day and on time. The children enjoy the food. Our parents love that they do not have to prepare and bring in food every day. Mr. Wainwright and his team are very helpful with everything. I'm very satisfied with ITAVTFOC."
Volunteer
"We have been serving children and seniors since 1990. I have seen up close my husband's passion, work ethic, and determination to make an impact to satisfy schools, head starts, senior centers, childcare centers, and others in the Food Service industry."
Daycare
"I have been with ITAVTFOC since the very beginning. Since day 1, I have been extremely satisfied, especially since I have 3 food programs to compare it to.With ITAVTFOC, the paperwork is minimal. Chip and his staff come on time and the food is always tasty and hot. Oh, did I mention that this program delivers daily! As long as I have a childcare center I will always use ITAVTFOC. I always recommend them!"
Education Center
"I am extremely grateful for It Takes a Village! Last year, it was very difficult to get food service resources and supply food for the children in our program. After reaching out and talking with Mark, I was so relieved to know that he would help us despite our program size. We highly recommend ITAVTFOC and will continue to remain with them for another year!"
Early Learning Center
We love It Takes a Village to feed one child. The food is always good and high quality. The children get excited to eat and always clear their plates which makes for happy parents and teachers. The delivery staff are always on time with our deliveries and we never have to worry about meals making it to us or not. All in all, ITAVTFOC is reliable, responsive and a high quality food program.
Early Learning Academy
"Just alone, the name of this organization speaks volumes! It really does take a village. Mark does a great job in supporting childcare providers ensuring that we have what is needed by not only feeding children but also remaining in compliance. As a CEO, I understand the huge responsibility of compliance monitoring. Thank you for all you do."
