Hunger Doesn’t Take a Summer Vacation: Harvest Regional Food Bank is sponsoring Summer Feeding Programs
Texarkana, AR, May 28th – August 2nd. This summer, children can enjoy FREE lunches through the Summer Feeding Program, sponsored by Harvest Regional Food Bank and open to all kids ages 1‐18 years. No applications are necessary to drop in and all children and teens are welcome.

Harvest Regional Food Bank is an equal opportunity provider.

The Summer Feeding Program makes sure all children can eat healthy food during the summer months when they cannot eat at school.   Approximately one in five children in Arkansas are food insecure, meaning they have limited or uncertain access to safe and nutritious food. Children who are hungry or food insecure are more likely to be in poor health and less likely to develop physically, mentally and emotionally.
