The Federally funded Summer Lunch Program has been
successfully operated for the past 17 years. During the
summer of 1991, 33 serving stations were established at
locations in and around the City of San Bernardino. An
average of 1,680 meals per day were served.
The Summer Lunch Program provides nutritional help to children
who would otherwise be deprived of food assistance received at
other times of the year under the National School Lunch
Program. Meal preparation and delivery are contracted with
the San Bernardino city Unified School District. This program
is fully funded from the USDA Grant and no general funds are
required. Additionally, approximately $7,200 in administra-
tive costs are reimbursed to the City.
