Summer Meal Programs

Published on July 2, 2019 • Michelle Voelker

Summer Meal Programs are available through many local providers and organizations. In Iowa alone, over 40,000 children ages 18 and under are eligible for free meals, and only 3,000 participate. Des Moines Public Schools alone has 19 meal sites running through the summer.

To find a summer meal site near you use the USDA site locator tool or text “FOOD” to 877877.
