HONOLULU (KHON2) — Looking for free meals for your keiki this summer? Hawaiʻi Foodbank has you covered.
Hawaii Foodbank expecting cuts from federal funding as need continues to grow
Sun Meals and Kaukau 4 Keiki, Hawaiʻi Foodbank’s summer programs for students, are making a return this summer, providing free food for students when school is not in session.
“For many households, school-provided meals are a critical resource that helps families make it through each school day. But for families and children facing hunger, summer can mean up to 90 days without their most consistent source of food,” said Hawaiʻi Foodbank President and CEO Amy Miller. “These programs help to fill that gap. By providing free meals for students throughout the summer, we hope to take some of the stress off both keiki and their parents to ensure everyone is able to come back healthy and ready to learn in the fall—and reach their full potential in the future.”
