KSDK -- Each day more than 10,000 kids across the city of St. Louis are benefiting from a program that ties nutrition and recreation in these tough economic times, but the city says the program is not being fully utilized.
The Summer Meals Program can provide breakfast and lunch for every child in the city of St. Louis. The federally funded program is available to any resident in the city that is under 19-years-old.
As many as 10,000 youths take advantage of the daily program, but organized say they can do twice that amount. They believe many people do not know the program exists. You do not have to sign up for the program, just show up to one of the 100 locations in the city that provides the meals.
For more information, call the
St. Louis Department of Human Services at 314-657-1695.
