Feed More’s Summer Program Distributes Free Meals to Kids and Teens

RICHMOND, Va. – Feed More’s Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) will once again be providing free
breakfast and lunch meals to thousands of children and teens this summer across Greater Richmond.
Created to ensure that kids and teens continue to receive meals during the summer when school is not in
session, Feed More’s SFSP provides well-balanced meals each weekday to children and teens,18 years
and younger, free of charge.
“Our continued participation in the Summer Food Service Program allows us to provide thousands of
healthy meals to children and teens across Greater Richmond and the Tri-Cities who don’t have reliable
access to food when the school year ends,” said Ruth Ann Caplice, Children’s Program Manager at Feed
More. “This program helps ensure our region’s kids and teens grow and develop with the nutrition they
need to be successful when the next school year begins in the fall.”
Feed More’s Summer Food Service Program is a vital resource for kids and teens who experience food
insecurity – in fact, last summer, Feed More provided more than 40,000 breakfast and lunch meals to
thousands of children at meal sites across our region. And with inflation continuing to take a toll on the
working families we serve, this program is more important than ever.
SFSP meals will be provided to all children without charge and are the same for all children regardless of
race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability, and there will be no discrimination in the course of the
meal service. Meals will be provided at a first come, first serve basis at approved sites across Greater
Richmond and the Tri-Cities.

throughout the summer.
