Summer Meals - The Lunch Box

 

Since the summer of 2016, Painesville City Local Schools’ Nutrition Services Department has participated in a Mobile Summer Food Service Program: a food truck also known as “The Lunch Box” that provides meals to all children ages 18 and under at no cost.

What is SFSP?

The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) ensures that low-income children continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session. This summer, USDA plans to serve more than 200 million free meals to children 18 years and under at approved SFSP sites.  You can find more information here: http://www.fns.usda.gov/sfsp/mobile-feeding

To file a program complaint of discrimination, complete the USDA Program Discrimination Complaint Form (AD-3027) at http://ascr.usda.gov/complaint_filing_cust.html.

Meals 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.

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
