Nourishing Our Future: Jasper School District Offers Free Summer Meals for All Children

The Jasper School District is launching a free summer meal program for children aged 18 and under. This program is open to all children, not just students of the district, and there are no income requirements for participation.

Families interested in the program must fill out an online form. The program will run from June 3, 2024, to July 29, 2024. Each week, participating children will receive a package with seven breakfasts and seven lunches, which include milk, juice, canned goods, and other non-perishable items.

Meals will be distributed at various locations in the district on specific days. For example, distribution will occur at the Mt. Judea Store parking lot and two other locations on Mondays, at the Deer School parking lot and another site on Tuesdays, and at the Jasper School Safe House/FEMA Building on Wednesdays. The Kingston Campus will host distributions on Thursdays.

For residents of the Oark communities, home delivery is available from Monday to Friday at the Jasper Campus. Additionally, the district will provide on-site hot meals from May 28, 2024, to June 28, 2024, with specific serving times for breakfast and lunch.
