The Union County School District is starting a Summer Feed Program to provide free meals to children 18 and under. This program does not require prior application and will run from June 3 to June 30, 2024. It aims to prevent child hunger during the summer.

Meals will follow USDA nutrition guidelines and will be served at various locations, including Morganfield Elementary School and Union County High School. Breakfast is from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m., and lunch from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. All meals must be eaten onsite.

The program also offers weekend meals. Children who eat meals during the week can pick up weekend meals every Friday after eating onsite. Any leftover meals are available from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on a first-come, first-served basis.

Only parents or guardians can pick up meals for children. Other adults must have the child with them to pick up meals. This rule ensures meals go to children 18 and under.
