\u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s so important to make sure children do not go hungry in the summer just because school is out,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said David Emerson, CEO of the East Texas Food Bank. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Here in East Texas, 1 in 4 children are food insecure so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s up to our community to make sure we fill that meal gap when the school year ends and kids lose access to free and reduced-price meals they depend on.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
This summer, ETFB will serve 64,000 meals to over 3,000 children at 45 locations in East Texas. ETFB provides meals at various community sites Monday-Friday. There is no need to register. The program is for children 18 and younger. Typical breakfast menus are cereal or breakfast bars, plus juice and milk, while lunch includes wraps, sandwiches with deli meat, pizza lunchables, fresh fruit and chocolate milk.<\/p>\n
