Kids Lunch Club program begins its fourth summer

Posted: Tue, Jun 4, 2019 1:40 PM

The Kids Lunch Club will serve free grab-and-go lunches to any child again this summer. The program will run every weekday starting Monday, June 10th.  Children can pick up one free lunch per day at John Cline Elementary from 12:00 noon until 12:30 p.m. or at Freeport Park from 12:45 p.m. until 1:00 p.m.  No registration is taken for participation.  Meals include fresh fruits and vegetables, snacks, and protein sources.

The Kids Lunch Club initiative has served 4,122 lunches over its first three summers. The program is funded entirely through local donations from faith communities, businesses and individuals.  Volunteers pack lunches based on a rotating menu.  Additional volunteers help with distribution of meals.

Kids Lunch Club is a collaborative, community-driven program that offers free meals for children during the summer months. For additional information, to donate, or to volunteer, visit www.kidslunchclub.org.
