SFSP Sponsors that Operated in 2020-21

Community organizations may partner with experienced SFSP sponsors to operate as a site to serve meals to eligible children.

The SFSP sponsor provides the meals to the site operator and ensures all financial and administrative responsibilities are met. Site supervisors receive training from the approved sponsor and may be required to sign an agreement that outlines the site’s responsibilities.

Organizations that have identified a population of children eligible for free summer meals, that are not already being provided access, should contact sponsors that previously operated and request to receive meals by becoming a site.
