Although Summer is exciting for some, many students will go without consistent meals. Children need nutritious meals to learn, grow, and thrive—even when school is out. Feed the Children says a staggering 1 in 5 American children is food-insecure. Here is a list of local school districts offering Free Summer Meals for Kids in and around Austin. The schedule and sites are subject to change, according to the district. Please refer to district websites.
