Sponsors needed for summer feeding programs

The State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction’s Child Nutrition Services office is now accepting applications for sponsors of the 2009 summer feeding programs for children.

Eligible sponsors are those who operate a non-profit meal program during the summer school break to children ages 18 and younger. Qualified sponsors will be reimbursed for eligible meals served.

The meal sites must be located in areas where at least 50 percent of the children are qualified for free or reduced-price school meals, or where at least 50 percent of the children enrolled in a specific program are eligible for free and reduced-price school meals. All children – regardless of family income level – can receive a free meal at approved sites.

For further information, contact Donna Parsons, Child Nutrition Services, Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, at (360) 725-6220, by e-mail at Donna.Parsons@k12.wa.us or by mail at P.O. Box 47200, Olympia, WA 98504-7200.
