Once the school year ends, summer meals begin!
Summer Meals NY
2025 Summer Meals sites will be available starting in late June!
Summer Meals and Summer EBT are two ways to help your family with food over the summer!
Summer Meals
During the summer, all kids and teens ages 18 and under can get free, nutritious meals at nearby places like parks, community centers and libraries. Meals vary, but all include nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, grains and protein. Many sites offer fun activities, too. There is no need to sign up. Just show up!
