At summerlunch+, we believe that raising awareness is a key part of creating lasting change. Over the years, our team has been featured on television, in newspapers, and on podcasts, sharing the importance of summer nutrition, food literacy, and family engagement.

As trusted spokespeople, we advocate for greater support for children's nutrition programs and work to highlight how nourishing families during the summer strengthens communities year-round.
