With summer right around the corner, it’s time to think about keeping children healthy while school is out. Aramark provides free meals to children during the summer.

This summer, meals will be served at the Warwick DHS Office at 195 Buttonwoods Avenue starting July 2 to August 24 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. There are no income requirements or registration. Any child under age 18 may come to eat. For more information, contact Jennifer or Christine at 298-6405.

Each year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture partners with local organizations like Aramark to provide free meals to children when school is out for the summer.
