Providing nutritious meals and snacks for kids after school

Providing nutritious meals and snacks for kids after school

Through Kids Café we provide healthy, free meals and snacks after school to children who are at risk of food insecurity. 

We do this through a variety of community locations where children congregate—such as Boys & Girls Clubs, churches, and public schools. All Kids Café sites offer a safe haven where a child can get involved in educational, recreational, and social activities.

There are 8 Kids Café program sites across our service area, providing sustenance to hundreds of children each month.

Lynchburg:
College Hill Parks & Rec Center
Daniel’s Hill Parks & Rec Center
Diamond Hill Parks & Rec Center
Fairview Parks & Rec Center
Jefferson Parks & Rec Center
Yoder Parks & Rec Center

Staunton/Waynesboro:

Kids Café is funded by the USDA through the Virginia Department of Education.
