Where kids can eat free this summer

No description found

ROANOKE, Va. – While most children look forward to summer vacation, for others, it can mean going hungry. Thousands of kids in our area depend on free or reduced breakfasts and lunches during the school year. 

To help close the gap and make sure children have adequate food, Feeding America Southwest Virginia is participating in the Summer Food Service Program.
