During the school year, many kids get reduced-cost or free lunches at school. The facilities listed here help provide children with meals throughout the summer months.

The city of Rochester provides free breakfast and lunch to kids under the age of 18 through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Summer Food Service Program. For more information, visit www.cityofrochester.gov/summermeals or call 428-7872.
