FREE Summer Meals for Kids

Find Summer Meal Sites in your Community

In these economic hard times, families often struggle to provide enough food for their kids to eat. During the summer, it can be especially hard as kids don't have school meals to provide their breakfast and lunch.

The Summer Food Service Program (summer meals) is a federal nutrition program that provides free meals and snacks during the summer in select locations to ALL kids (ages 1 to 18 years old - regardless of income).

WithinReach can help anyone find available summer meals sites across Washington:

Summer Meals Search Tool - view the closest meal sites, program hours and sponsoring organizations

Family Food Hotline (1-888-436-6392) call for help in any language 

Other Food Resources are available on ParentHelp123.org that may improve economic stability and nutrition including: Basic Food (food stamps), WIC and food banks.
