Dear Families of Corrales International School,

My name is Jamie Belen and I would like to introduce myself as well as my business to you. I am excited about offering child friendly, delicious, healthy meals to your children at Corrales International School this year, and I look forward to what I hope will be a long productive relationship with you and your children.

I am a parent too. I know that parents want their children to eat healthy meals so their learning is enhanced, and we worry about what they eat when we are not with them. I know the morning stress getting our kids off to school on time, and the challenge of packing a nutritious lunch each day. I know we don't want to pay for meals that our children won't eat. For all these reasons, I began NaMa Catering.

NaMa is a catering company that serves the Albuquerque Charter and the Private School market. NaMa offers creative, colorful, organic, local and delicious lunch for students. Most people make the assumption that "school lunch" food means ordinary, processed, cafeteria food. NaMa catering will inject new life into the kids lunch market, using seasonal, creative new options.

From one parent to another, thank you for the opportunity of nourishing you children. I hope to meet with you regularly to get your feedback and to work together for healthy happy kids. You can reach me anytime at jamie@namacatering.com.

Jamie Belen

Owner and head chef
