FREE SUMMER MEALS FOR KIDS SLATED FOR SUMMER MONTHS
Posted by Administrator on May 2nd, 2013
Summer is an important time for kids’ and teens’ academic and physical well-being. But without access to regular nutritious meals, they can suffer long-term consequences, both academically and in overall growth and development. Studies show that kids are at a higher risk for both hunger and obesity during the summer months. To meet the needs of local kids and teens, Care and Share Food Bank is once again sponsoring the Summer Food Service Program for children ages 1-18. The program will provide free breakfast and lunch during the summer at the Bent County/Las Animas Community Center May 28 through July 12, Monday through Friday. Breakfast will be served between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. and lunch between 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. Snack services will not be provided.
For more information about the summer food program contact Jennifer Mariano, director of programs, at 719-434-4676 or Jennifer@careandshare.org
