Meet Up and Eat Up Summer Food Program
Through Michigan’s Meet Up and Eat Up program, children 18 and under can receive free, nutritious meals at participating summer meal sites.
No registration or paperwork is required at on-site meal locations. Meal sites, dates and times vary by community, so families are encouraged to use the official Summer Meals Site Finder to find locations near them. Families may also find SUN Meals To-Go options at some locations, along with information about SUN Bucks, a summer grocery benefit for eligible families. Use the SUN Bucks eligibility checker to see if your child qualifies. More information is available on the No Kid Hungry website.
