Children's Lunches
According to “No Kid Hungry,” “Addressing summer hunger can have clear health, education, and economic benefits. In the short term, the program can help mitigate summer weight gain, cognitive decline, and summer learning loss among children.” At New Day, we recognize that parents experience challenges in providing for their children during the summer. When school is out, many of these children can go hungry.
New Day addresses childhood hunger in Kitsap by providing free healthy lunches during school closures for children and teens in low-income areas. These kid-friendly lunches are made with each child’s food allergies and health in mind.
During other school closures, New Day provides weekend lunch packs for low-income children every Friday.
