Feeding the Gulf Coast is hosting a Summer Meals Celebration for children in the community on Thursday, June 13, from 11 AM to 1 PM at James Seals Park & Community Center. There will be activity stations, interactive inflatables, and free lunches for children ages 18 and younger.
Feeding the Gulf Coast partners with local community organizations to provide free meals to children, 18 and younger, through the Summer Meals Program. The program is supported by the United States Department of Agriculture and is designed to fill the nutritional gap when children are out of school during the summer months and do not have access to free or reduced-price breakfasts and lunches at school. This program has a significant impact on children and families across the central Gulf Coast.
"As summer comes, many children who rely on school meals face the painful reality of hunger instead of the carefree days of summer they should be able to enjoy,” said Michael Ledger, President and CEO at Feeding the Gulf Coast. “Feeding the Gulf Coast expects to provide more than 8,000 meals on a daily basis to children through our Summer Meals Program across our service area.
