Grants of up to $2,000 will be awarded to organizations that are implementing after­school meal programs

10/5/2017

 
After School Meal Program Grants

This grant cycle runs from October 3rd through November 1st. To apply, visithttp://nokidhungrygrants.force.com/, Grants of up to $2,000 will be awarded to organizations that are implementing after­school meal programs or to transition exist­ing programs from serving afterschool snacks to offering full meals through the CACFP.

The program is flexible. Many schools start offering afterschool meals at 3:00pm so that students can eat before their activities such as band, clubs, sports, and tutoring. The meal is often comprised as a “super-snack.” This way, kids can have more food to sustain them until they eat dinner (if they get dinner at home), schools can be re­imbursed at a higher rate for a meal instead of just a snack, and food services can easily prepare the food.  Schools can develop their own menus which allow them to offer healthy food that will teach kids good eating habits, making them less likely to snack on junk food.
