Free lunch and activities for youth over the summer


The Dale Turner Family YMCA is in partnership with local organizations to ensure youth receive nutritious meals while away from school over the summer months. Just as learning does not end when school lets out, neither does a child's need for good nutrition. 

The Dale Turner Family YMCA is proud to continue providing the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) for children at multiple sites throughout the city of Shoreline and south Snohomish County, which provides free, nutritious meals and snacks to help children get the nutrition they need to learn, play and stay energized over the summer as well as fend off summer learning loss.

Hunger is one of the most severe roadblocks to the learning process. Lack of nutrition during the summer months may set up a cycle for poor performance once school begins again. Hunger also may make children more prone to illness and other health issues. The SFSP is designed to fill that nutrition gap and make sure children can get the nutritious meals they need.

Meals will be made available at no charge to attending children 18 years of age and younger.  All meals are available without regard to race, ethnicity, national origin, sex, age, or disability.  

To file a complaint of discrimination, write USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Avenue S.W., Washington, D.C. 20250-9410 or call toll free (800) 795-3272 (voice) or (202) 720-6382 (TTY).  The Dale Turner Family YMCA and the USDA are an equal opportunity provider and employer.
