Shelby Joy Adams on her experience with the Summer Meals Program

The Summer Meals Program provides kids with healthy meals and snacks that they usually receive during the school day, but many aren't aware of these resources or aren't sure how to access them. Our work with Summer Meals ensures kids and families across the Philadelphia region can access the free Summer Meal sites right in their neighborhood. 

We connect local kids and families with free, healthy summer meals by operating a live Summer Meals Hotline and hosting a Summer Meals Map directing families to locations that are open to all children 18 and younger - no registration, ID, or proof of income necessary. 

There is a growing need for our Summer Meals resources and services. Last summer our Summer Meals Map was used more than double the amount it was used in the summer of 2021. And, we've already begun receiving calls to our Summer Meals Hotline where last year we connected families with 66 different locations where they could access free meals and snacks for school-aged kids.

Help us continue this life-changing work and make sure kids across the Philadelphia region have the food they need this summer!
