School's Out for Summer
During the school year, parents rely on school breakfast and lunch programs. During the summer break, a limited number of schools offer meal programs. Local kids are at risk of food insecurity this summer.
The Challenges
-
Bite2Go is not distributing kids snack bags this summer.
-
Food costs have risen by 3% over the past year, concurrent with the rising cost of rent and gasoline.
-
Gas prices are so high that many parents are not able to drive kids to meal sites.
-
Kids may live too far away to walk to sites while their parents are working.
-
Some parents just don't take advantage of these summer meal programs.
