The Hawaii State Department of Education will provide free meals to children 18 years and younger through its Grab-and-Go program beginning Monday, Oct. 12, through Friday, Dec. 18.
Meals will be distributed at 203 public schools and can be picked up at the nearest participating school Monday through Friday, excluding holidays and designated school breaks. Unlike during the summer, meal distribution will be at lunchtime only.
Meal pickups will include one lunch for that day and one breakfast for the following day per child. Parents and guardians may pick up meals without children, but most provide proof as indicated on the enclosed flyer. Meals at other schools not listed will be distributed on normal serving schedules and pricing rates.
