Summer MealsOur service to the community extends beyond the school year. During the summer, we sponsor schools and other organizations (feeding sites) in the Summer Food Service Program which is administered by the N.C. Department of Public Instruction.Through our partnership with our feeding sites, we are able to provide meals for children and teens up to the age of 18. Children do not have to be WCPSS students and they do not have to qualify for free or reduced-price meals at school.Organizations that would like to serve as feeding sites should contact us at 919-588-3523 for information.2023 Summer Meals SitesFind a summer meals service site nearest you by texting FOOD to 304-304, view locations on the NC Site Finder Map, or calling 1-866-3-HUNGRY (1-866-348-6479) or 1-877-8-HAMBRE (1-877-842-6273) (Spanish).
