There are 40 places in Santa Barbara County where any child 18 and under can enjoy a healthy, nutritious meal starting June 15.
To find out where summer meals are served, families throughout the county can text FOOD to 304-304 to find a free summer meals site in their neighborhood. No paperwork or registration is required.
The partnership of schools, cities and nonprofit organizations that provide these meals are beginning their ninth annual fun Summer Meal Concert Series, supported by No Kid Hungry.
Beginning this week and throughout the summer, local musicians and DJs will perform at various sites. Local radio stations will broadcast live from the meal sites, helping to spread the word so that more kids have a healthy summer.
