To help fight hunger in communities, the U.S. Department of Agriculture provides funding to school districts to continue to provide meals during the summer.
The federally funded program provides free meals to anyone ages 18 and younger. Enrollment in the program or school is not required; children simply have to show up to the sites to get meals.
For more information, visit the Summer Food Service program, or to find a site offering the summer meals, go to www.SummerFood.org. Families also can find resources by calling 211 or texting FOOD to 304-304.
Fort Worth ISD
Fort Worth ISD campuses will serve meals Monday through Thursday, June 5 through 29. Meals times at campuses vary, according to the district. Text FOOD to 304-304 for times.
