By Tim Lee May 10, 2022 | 6:17 PM

With summer right around the corner, it’s time to think about keeping children healthy while school is out. United Way of Whiteside County will provide free meals to children all summer long.

Meals will feature kid-friendly foods like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, juice, crackers, granola bars, and fruit cups. No registration or ID is required, and participation is open to all children and teens.

Kids and teens will be able to get a grab and go meal from one of 18 sites throughout Whiteside County. Each site will serve on Wednesdays but will provide three lunches for each child.  The program runs every Wednesday from 12:00PM -12:30PM starting June 1st and ending on August 10th.
