Summer is a time for sunshine, adventure, and fun!  Make the most of the season – and stretch your family's time and budget – with free summer meals for kids.  Schools, YMCAs, military sites, public libraries, parks and recreation centers, and other neighborhood organizations operate summer meal programs (SUN Meals).  Some may offer nutrition education resources, reading activities, recreational activities, and more.  For families in rural areas, Meals-To-Go options allow meals to parents and caregivers to pick up several days' worth of meals at once, giving kids nutritious food they can enjoy at home.

All children ages 1 through 18 are eligible to receive free meals during the summer months at participating program sites.  Individuals ages 19-21 who have been identified as having mental or physical disabilities and are following Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) though their current enrollment in educational programs also are eligible for free meals. SUN Meals provides free, nutritious breakfasts, lunches, suppers and snacks (meal service requirements apply) to help children in low-income areas get the nutrition they need to learn, play, and grow throughout the summer months while they are out of school.
