Summer Food Service Program (SFSP)

Summer Food Service Program

Feeding Dreams, Nourishing Summers

Summertime evokes images of play, laughter, and sunshine. But for many children, it’s also a time of uncertainty about where their next meal will come from. At Hope for the Needy, we’re determined to change that narrative with the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP).

Bridging the Gap

Schools play an integral role in ensuring children receive regular, nutritious meals. When schools close for the summer, the SFSP steps in, ensuring no child goes hungry and every tummy is filled with nutritious goodness.

Our SFSP Highlights

Wholesome Meals

Our menus are carefully curated by nutritionists to ensure children receive a balanced diet. From fresh fruits and veggies to protein-rich dishes, we make sure each meal is both tasty and nourishing.

Safe and Accessible Locations

We partner with local community centers, parks, and schools to distribute meals, ensuring families can easily access them without undue burden.

Inclusive Service

All children under the age of 18 are eligible for the SFSP, irrespective of their family's income. It’s our belief that every child deserves a hunger-free summer.

Fun and Learning

Beyond meals, we often organize fun activities, workshops, and learning sessions at our distribution points, ensuring kids have an enriching experience.

Encouraging Words from Pastor Moses Ogundayo

"Summer should be a season of joy and exploration for our children. Through the SFSP, we aim to ensure that the joy isn’t marred by hunger, and exploration isn’t limited by empty stomachs. Together, let's infuse warmth into summer, one meal at a time."
