Hot off the press! The January Summer Meal Coalition newsletter is here!
This month, we’ve highlighted resources and ideas to help you prevent
kids in your community from going hungry when school’s out. To
start,USDA Under Secretary Kevin Concannon offers an encouraging
message followed by an example of a creative partnership in Oakland
that resulted in nearly 3,000 summer meals for kids. Be sure to check
out our round-up of nutrition education resources and Chef Ann
Cooper’s tips for boosting your summer menu. Also, don’t miss the
upcoming Coalition webinars to learn first-hand from successful summer
meal providers about how to help kids in your community – especially
in these tough economic times when the need is greater and budgets are
tight.
