Summer Food Service Program
” The Summer Food Service Program also know as “Summer Meals” is available in hundreds of communities throughout Oregon, offering free meals and snacks to ALL kids 1-18. Community summer meal programs are open to all families without paperwork, income verification, and regardless of immigration status. To receive a meal, kids can just drop in during a site’s designated meal times. Many programs also offer fun activities so kids can stay active and keep learning.
