TUCSON, Ariz. — The school year has ended, but childhood hunger has not. School districts across Tucson have started their free summer meals program.

Jacqueline Grassmyer, site supervisor for the food service staff at TUSD, has been working the summer program for around 15 years. Marana Unified School District and Amphitheater Public Schools also have their own free summer meals for Tucson youth. Neither sign-ups nor enrollment is required for any of the programs.

“It doesn’t have to be TUSD families that can participate," Aguilar said."So if there’s other children that live nearby a school, they’re welcome to come and receive a meal.”
