Summer Meals – Summer Food Service Programs are available SummerMealsNY.org

Dear Putnam Valley Community:

Summer Meals and Summer EBT are two ways to help your family with food over the summer!

Summer Meals
During the summer, all kids and teens ages 18 and under can get free, nutritious meals at community centers or schools that are operating Summer Food Service Programs. Meals vary, but all include nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, grains, and protein. There is no need to sign up. Just show up! Find a Summer Meals spot near you (Peekskill High School (open site) July 7th – August 8th Monday – Thursday 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.)

Summer EBT
Summer EBT (S-EBT) helps families with school-age kids buy food during the summer. Most eligible children will automatically receive Summer EBT, but some families may need to apply. Learn more at NYSOTDA’s Summer EBT webpage\
