Help ensure all children in the Hazleton Area have access to summer meals
Many children in the United States don’t have access to foods needed to thrive. Kids that miss out on proper nutrition during the summer are more likely to experience learning loss and develop long-term health consequences. The Seamless Summer Food Service Program is about serving kids across the community free lunch all summer long when they do not have access to school lunch. The program provides free, nutritious meals to children 18 years of age and under at approved sites in areas with high concentrations of low-income children.
We are asking for your help in spreading the word that meals will be available through the Hazleton Area School District from June 15, 2026-August 6, 2026. There will be no program on July 4, 2024. If you know of any locations that may be willing to operate as a site, please reach out to the Food Service Department at any time.
