Summer Food Program

Each year, ETHRA joins with the USDA for The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). Our goal is simple – that no child goes hungry over the summer months. The SFSP was established to ensure that children continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session. When school is out, the SFSP provides free meals to kids and teens in low-income areas.

For Summer 2022, ETHRA will be hosting a number of participating sites in eight counties of East Tennessee. For more information, including the schedule, for each site, please download the documentation below:
