The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is looking for eligible sponsors to serve nutritious meals to children throughout Georgia next summer. The SFSP is administered by Bright from the Start: Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (DECAL) and funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). "Providing nutritious summer meals to children who would normally receive free breakfast or lunch during the school year is part of DECAL's commitment to keeping Georgia's children healthy," said DECAL Commissioner Bobby Cagle. SFSP provides reimbursement to non-profit and government organizations that provide free meals to eligible children when students are out of school for summer. About 3.6 million meals were served through the program last summer. Info: http://www.decal.ga.gov/BftS/SFSPBecomingASponsor.aspx; toll free at 1-855-550-SFSP (7377) or e-mail, SFSP@decal.ga.gov.
