Summer is an important time for kids’ and teens’ academic and physical well-being. But without access to regular nutritious meals, they can suffer long-term consequences, both academically and in overall growth and development. Studies show that kids are at a higher risk for both hunger and obesity during the summer months.
To meet the needs of local kids and teens, Care and Share Food Bank is once again sponsoring the Summer Food Service Program for children ages 1-18. The program will provide free lunches, breakfasts, or snacks during the summer at the locations, dates, and times listed below.
Dolores County School District, 425 N. Main St., Dove Creek, Colo., June 2 – July 3 Monday through Thursday, lunch at 11:50 a.m.-12:30 p.m. and snacks at 2 p.m.-2:30 p.m.
Information: Contact Jennifer Mariano, Programs Director at 719-434-4676 or Jennifer@careandshare.org.
