Summer Food Box distribution available for local families begins June 17

Families with children 18 years of age and younger will have the opportunity to receive free Summer Food Boxes through a USDA-funded program this summer.

Food boxes will be distributed at Red River High School from 10:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. on a first-come, first-served basis. Distribution dates are scheduled for June 17, June 24, July 1, July 8, July 15, and July 22.

Guardians picking up boxes for children who are not present should enter through the high school’s horseshoe drive, follow posted signs, and complete a form providing identification along with the child’s name and date of birth. Families arriving with children present may simply drive through and receive their boxes.

All children ages 18 and under are eligible to participate in the program. Organizers encourage families to arrive early, as supplies will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Summer Food Box program is funded through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), which is an equal opportunity provider. The program helps ensure that children continue to have access to nutritious food during the summer months when school meals are not available.
