POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) — Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 is gearing up for the 20225 Summer Food Service Program. This summer will mark the 25th year that the program has provided meals to children ages 1-18 without charge.
“The Summer Food Service Program is a wonderful program. For many children, this is the only meal they will get during the summer days while parents are working,” write D25 Staff. “However, this program does more than serve needy families – it promotes health and well-being, and provides an opportunity for all families in the community to enjoy the wonderful parks our city has to offer while enjoying a nutritious meal.”
