We are continuing with the three-day meal distribution schedule for the foreseeable future. We will be distributing on MONDAY, WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAYS distributing multiple meals each day. During the original April School Vacation Week, we will distribute your 7 days of meals on Tuesday and Friday (April 21 & 24). rather than M-W-F We will provide a bagged lunch along with a bagged breakfast according to the following schedule:

  • Monday: Monday & Tuesday’s lunch and Tuesday & Wednesday’s breakfast
  • Wednesday: Wednesday & Thursday’s lunch and Thursday & Friday’s breakfast
  • Friday: Friday, Saturday & Sunday’s lunch, Saturday, Sunday & Monday breakfast

Who can participate?

  • Anyone 18 years of age or younger who comes to a distribution site will be provided bagged breakfast and lunch. No proof of income, residency or age is required.
  • In an effort to ensure program integrity but also provide some leniency for children who may be sick or immunocompromised and should not be going out to the site, we would like you to simply ask the person picking up the meal, how many children are in the family and where they go to school. If the child does not attend school (too young) they are still able to receive a meal for them."

Is it safe?

The food is being prepared in sanitary conditions by our ServSafe certified food service staff, and the bagged meals are being distributed in a grab & go format, three times per week, following social distancing protocols. We are following appropriate hand washing, sanitizing and glove wearing procedures.
