It’s officially summertime and the kids are out of school and looking for things to do. Many Connecticut summer food programs began operation this week serving FREE breakfast, lunches, and snacks to kids. This year, Connecticut has 37 sponsors serving meals to kids across 39 towns.
More families will feel increased financial pressure this summer with the rising costs of fuel and food; it is important families are aware summer meal programs are FREE and available to ALL kids 18 and under. Summer meals provide the necessary nutrition kids need throughout the year to stay healthy. Many summer sites also offer activities, games, and raffles to keep kids engaged and active through the long summer months.
Three easy ways to find the site nearest you:
1.) Call Infoline 2-1-1
2.) View info on the CT State Dept of Education website by clicking here
3.) Call End Hunger CT! at (860) 560-2100 ext. 14
