Over 70,000 children on Long Island rely on school lunch programs. So what happens to them now that school is closed? Island Harvest, Long Island’s largest hunger relief organization, is now providing supplemental meals through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) to children who would ordinarily rely on free or reduced breakfast, lunch and snacks during the school year and may not have adequate meals when school is out of session. The SFSP provides free supplemental meals or snacks to children 18 years old and younger. For more information, call Bob King at Island Harvest, 516-294-8528, Ext. 126.
