Connecting Kids to Meals will continue to be serving Free Meals to Kids, ages 18 and under, all around the community. Requirements have changed and all kids must eat meals at the location they are served. Please join us at one of our locations and enjoy a hot meal! Locations will be added all year, so make sure to keep checking! You can join us at the local libraries for a hot, healthy, and delicious meal, at no cost for kids 18 years and under. We look forward to having the kids join us for dinner!

We can not fulfill our mission alone.
There are nearly 50,000 kids in our area who face hunger regularly and that number continues to rise each year. While we receive reimbursement funds under the Child Nutrition Programs and grants we also rely on donations from the community to carry out our mission.
Connecting Kids to Meals serves meals to thousands of children per day. We are a longstanding and trusted community partner.
Please help us reach more hungry kids with a financial donation. Your gift will help reduce child hunger, stabilize and strengthen families, as well as transform a community.
Contact us at 419.720.1106 or [email protected] or [email protected].
Thank You For Helping Us Reach Our Goal!
Your change can change the lives of hungry kids in our community.

Our Mission
The mission of Connecting Kids to Meals (formerly, Feed Lucas County Children) is to provide hot, nutritious meals at no cost to children in low-income and underserved areas throughout the entire year. As a nonprofit organization, we fulfill this mission by partnering with community locations where kids gather during the summer months and throughout the academic year. Since we began operating in 2002, we have served over 6 million meals to hungry kids in need.
