Summer BreakSpot offers balanced breakfasts, lunches, snacks or dinners at no cost for kids 18 and under. Meals will be served on site, at no cost, at places like parks, libraries, schools and churches.

Free Meals Available for Kids Throughout the Summer

Volusia County’s Human Services Office is sponsoring the Summer Food Service Program for children from June 3 through August 9.

The program, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, provides nutritionally balanced meals regardless of race, color, sex, disability or national origin during summer vacation when school breakfasts and lunches are not available. All children age 18 and younger are eligible for meals at no charge, and there will be no discrimination in meal service.

The programs are approved only for geographical areas where 50 percent or more of the children qualify for free and reduced-price meals during the school year.

Meals will be served Monday through Friday unless otherwise indicated. Find a location near you by texting the word “Food” or “Comida” to 304-304 or dialing 211 on your phone. You can also visit the Summer BreakSpot website and clicking “Find a Site.”

Fifty-five organizations throughout the county have volunteered to serve meals at their locations on weekdays. Children must eat their meals on site.

If there are no sites listed in the search results for your area, please check back later, as sites are being added to the map twice daily at 4 a.m. and 5 p.m.
