Share Summer Meals Program

Our Summer Meals program operates from the end of June to early August.

No paperwork is needed and we do not collect any personal information.

A reminder that all food must be consumed on site!

* No meals are served at any location on Thursday, July 4.

Volunteer with us next summer!

Help prepare 600-1,200 fresh and nutritious meals.
Assist Share’s Summer Meals Assistant in packing meals into coolers, greeting our volunteer drivers and loading coolers into vehicles.
Meet our delivery drivers as they return with left-over meals, wipe down coolers and ensure the kitchen is clean and ready for the next day.

Food is incredibly important for a developing child or teen, and yet over 20,000 children in Clark County are considered food insecure (they do not know when or where their next meal is coming from).

Research shows that receiving free or reduced-price meals reduces food insecurity, obesity rates, and poor health in children.

Summer Meals is a federally funded, state-administered program that reimburses providers who serve free healthy meals to children & teens when school is not in session.

The goal of the program is to give all children 18 and under access to nutritious meals in low-income areas while they do not have access to free/reduced school meals.

All site locations, addresses, dates and times will be listed here. To find the site closest to you, you can also text FOOD or COMIDA to 304-304.
