Meals are served at open, restricted open, or closed enrolled sites in areas where poor economic conditions exist. Meals also may be served at migrant meal sites, National Youth Sports Program (NYSP) sites, and residential and nonresidential camps. According to Feeding America, 22 million children throughout the country receive free or reduced meals during the school year. During the summer months, only 3.76 million continue to have access to those meals. This is where SFSP steps in to help provide those missed meals. Through SFSP, the South Plains Food Bank is able to partner with local Boys & Girls Clubs and community centers to provide breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack throughout our service area.All meals are prepared in the Kitchen of Hope and delivered daily to 16+ site locations across West Texas. In the summer of 2019, the South Plains Food Bank served 60,980 meals through our 24 SFSP sites.
