Great FREE Pottstown Food Program‏

The Borough of Pottstown’s Summer Food Service Program is in full swing serving FREE lunches daily! 

 

Every Monday-Friday from 1-2 PM FREE meals are served at the Memorial Park Pavilion (75 W King Street) for all aged 18 and under! The program is running now until Thursday, August 18th so hurry over! Don’t miss out on this awesome, FREE opportunity!!

 

It is a goal of the program to reach as many children in need of the program’s benefits as possible. They will deliver to numerous sites around Pottstown, and personally oversee the location at the Memorial Park Pavilion.

So far, participation has been great, but they are always looking to gain more youth and offer them a free meal daily.

 

The program is about halfway through but there is still plenty of time for people to benefit!

Share the information with those who need it and those who can help spread the word!

Please contact Kristin Robinson at krobinson@pottstown.org for more information.
