EBR Schools and OneRouge CAFÉ Collaborate - Free Summer Meals Program
Hunger does not take a summer vacation. This summer, children ages 0-18 can enjoy free breakfast and lunches through the 2024 EBRPSS Summer Meals Program from May 28 to August 2.
“We are excited to share with our community our dedication to ensuring that all children are provided fresh, delicious, and nutritious meals all year, including the most vulnerable time of the year for a child to go hungry: SUMMER!” shares EBRPSS Child Nutrition Program, Dr. Nichola Hall, Chief Human Resources Officer.
We highly recommend that families participate in EBRPSS Summer Feeding Programs and utilize SUN Bucks to feed children healthy and nutritious meals.
The EBRPSS Summer Feeding Program outreach is made possible through supportive partners, such as OneRouge and its Capital Area Food Equity (CAFÉ) Coalition and the City of Baton Rouge. These efforts have amplified the awareness of the EBRPSS Summer Meals Program by ensuring that Baton Rouge families are well-informed of the available resources such as the locations and operating hours of the numerous summer feeding sites. To help connect more people with food in Baton Rouge, become a member of OneRouge CAFÉ.
