Help spread the word about Summer Meals!

Help Outreach for Summer Meals!

 


21 million children across the United States receive free and reduced-price meals during the school year.
The Summer Food Service Program (Summer Meals) is a federal nutrition assistance program designed to help feed hungry kids during summer break. Tragically, only one in seven eligible NYC children takes advantage of these meals over the summer.

Our mission is to raise awareness in Harlem about the existence of these free healthy and nutritious meals. This volunteer site is seeing low-participation, and volunteer teams will help spread the word of this great program by outreaching in this district.

If you are interested, please contact Jared Kunze at jkunze@metcouncil.org or call 212-453-9668. This is a great opportunity for both individuals and groups!
