Great Northern Services (GNS) sponsors a USDA Summer Food Service Program. Bag lunches are distributed Monday through Friday from June to August. Meals are provided to all children ages 18 and under without charge and are the same for all children regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability, and there is no discrimination in the course of the meal service. In 2017 more than 4,000 lunches were served.
In 2018 the Free Summer Lunches will be served in Dunsmuir, McCloud, Montague, Mount Shasta, and Weed. (Click the links to download a site-specific flyer.)
