The Boys & Girls Clubs of Kern County serve as sites and sponsors for the USDA meal and snack programs, providing healthy meals, and snacks to children during out-of-school times, while also supporting educational and enrichment programs that keep children learning, engaged, and safe when school is not in session.
Through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and the Child and Adult Care Program (CACFP), the Boys & Girls Clubs of Kern County reported serving 626,791 meals and snacks for 2020 to youth at no cost. This program provides a valuable resource to individuals with the greatest need, and for many children these maybe the only nutritious meals they enjoy on a normal day.
Both SFSP and CACFP provide valuable services to individuals and their families with the greatest of needs. When members are served healthy meals and snacks, the Boys & Girls Club is not only helping to fulfill the hunger that many children face daily as well as engaging these children in education and enrichment activities. To inquire about either of these programs, please contact Chelsea Dow, Nutrition Coordinator.
