PROGRAMS


Weekend Meal Program (Lois' Food4Kids & Weekend Food for Kids) | The program provides food-insecure school-age children (18 and under) with nutritious, easy-to-prepare food for the weekend. Every Friday, the child receives two breakfasts, two lunches, a dinner, three snacks, three drinks, and a family meal to consume over the weekend when they do not have access to free breakfast and lunch at school. The program partners with schools, after-school programs, and other child-centric community programs and is available during the school year only, summer only, or year-round, depending on the community’s needs. 


School Pantry Program | Supports student and staff-led school pantries, with a high percentage of students on free and reduced lunch, by providing them with enough weekly food donations to support their students and families. School pantries allow low-income families to supplement their food budgets by providing additional food resources.


Pop-Up Farmers Markets | A direct-distribution program focusing on getting healthy produce into our communities’ food deserts. Participants receive bi-weekly 8-12-pound produce boxes along with recipe cards to supplement their diets and expose them to healthier eating habits. 


Groceries for Seniors | The program partners with senior-centric community partners to provide low-income seniors (60+ or 55+ if disabled) with a biweekly grocery bag of nutritious shelf-stable food and recipe cards to supplement their groceries. 

For more information on services and programming, please visit Palm Beach County Community Services - Senior Services or contact the Senior Center closest to you.
