United Way is gearing up for the Summer Hunger program where we partner with Bismarck Public Schools to help serve meals to children at 11 different Bismarck sites in the summer!
It’s a collaboration made in heaven! Funded through USDA, Bismarck Public Schools generously makes meals that hundreds of United Way Volunteers serve throughout the summer months at parks in 11 low-income neighborhoods. It’s a safe way to ensure kids don’t go hungry when school is out of session.
Thankfully, our United Way supporters are committed to taking care of kids when they aren’t at school - feeding any child in need over the weekends and throughout the summer months
In 2023, 569 volunteers and 29 businesses served 23,542 meals in 11 parks.
Bismarck Public Schools offers a FREE summer lunch program for local kids ages 18 and under Monday-Friday June 5th through July 18th (excluding July 3rd and 4th). All 11 sites that United Way volunteers are helping serve are listed below. All of these sites serve 11:45 - 12:30 pm.
