The Amherst, Pelham, and Amherst-Pelham Regional School Districts are proud to offer free summer meals for all children through the USDA Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). 

For the first time, two sites will be open to the public — no registration required — so that all local children ages 18 and under can receive free breakfast and lunch on weekdays. 

“I am grateful that through the Summer Food Service Program, we can continue to support the well-being of our students and families even when school is not in session. Access to healthy meals is so important, and this program helps ensure that all children in our community can thrive throughout the summer months,” said Superintendent of Schools E.
