Feeding San Diego Supports Youth Facing Hunger This Summer with 25 Summer School Food Service Program Sites

Published On: June 15th, 2021By Categories: News Releases4.3 min read

This summer, Feeding San Diego is supporting youth in need with the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), a critical part of its hunger-relief services across San Diego County. SFSP provides vital support during the summer months to ensure youth are getting the nutrition they need to grow and thrive.

At the 25 youth meal sites hosted by Feeding San Diego, children aged 1-18 can receive a free breakfast or snack and lunch daily. Children do not have to be present to receive a meal: a parent or guardian can pick up meals for them if they provide the names of their children. Feeding San Diego has fully adapted its operations to follow San Diego County health guidelines, and these sites are operating as drive-through or walk-up pick-ups, with meals served on a first-come, first serve basis to be taken home for consumption. Meals follow the USDA SFSP meal pattern and are either hot or cold.

In addition to its regular and emergency food distributions, the following is a list of Feeding San Diego’s 2021 Summer Food Service Program sites:
