Fighting Food Insecurity For Kids: Summer Lunch Buddies is Statewide Now featured image

Arizona is helping kids eat healthy, all summer long. In the battle against food insecurity and its dramatic effects on health, the federally-funded Summer Food Service Program   is here to help.

Hunger has long-term negative effects on child health and well-being. Children supported by food through schools during the academic year need summer resources. That’s where Summer Lunch Buddies comes in.

Hundreds of locations statewide are available, and AZ Health Zone’s interactive map makes information quick and easy to access. Make sure that no child goes hungry simply because a summer resource wasn’t known. Share Arizona’s Summer Lunch Buddies website with your networks today.
