School Meal Program

School Meal Program

Our Mission


The Exchange School Meal Program will provide wholesome, nutritious meals to eligible students in participating OCONUS Department of Defense schools.

The Goals of the School Meal Program

  • Create an atmosphere of excellent customer service and care for all
  • Make school meals a noticeable extension of the classroom and a learning environment for nutrition education
  • Give students the best nutritional value for their money

The Exchange provides school lunch to K-12 students on Army and Air Force Installations in 9 countries overseas. We follow the same USDA guidelines as schools throughout the United States. Check out the Nutrition page for an explanation of the new USDA guidelines. We provide Free and Reduced-Price meals for students who qualify under Federal Guidelines.

In school year 2021-2022, AAFES served an average of 27,000 meals each day for a total of more than 4.6 million meals over the school year.

We support programs in 76 school cafeterias on Army and Air Force Installations throughout Europe and the Pacific including all Marine installations in Okinawa and one Marine installation in Iwakuni.
