Summer Hunger Programs
Thousands of children in Northwest Arkansas rely on free and reduced meal programs during the school year, but when school is out, many children are unsure where they will find a supplemental meal.
In an effort to fight summer hunger, the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank has partnered with the Rogers School District to supply additional food to their free summer meal program. The additional food allows parents access to nutritious food as well.
The Rogers School District was recently one of twenty-seven schools nationwide to receive the Turnip The Beet Award from the United States Department of Agriculture. This award is presented to sponsors who are dedicated to offering high quality summer meals. The program has grown immensely every year, and the partnership with the NWAFB is helping sustain that growth. Kellie Simpson, the Assistant Director of Child Nutrition for Rogers Public Schools said, the partnership with the NWAFB has been phenomenal for us. The staff loves seeing how much they are impacting the community.
There are several summer hunger programs around NWA that are dedicated to serving children in need. Below is a list of locations that are providing summer hunger relief.
