Free Summer Meals for Kids - Where to Get Free Breakfast/Lunch in Brooklyn

City Program Requires No Forms, No ID, No Red Tape: If You're Hungry, Come

By , About.com Guide

Running from June 28 to August 31, 2012 kids under 18 can get a free breakfast and lunch from New York City at over 300 locations city wide, no questions asked.

Children do not need to show registration, documentation, or an ID to receive their meals.

Free lunch and breakfast will be handed out at hundreds of NYC public pools, parks and schools.

Where Children Under Age 18 Can Get a Free Summer Breakfast or Lunch

Just call 311 and ask where you can find free meals. Or text “nycmeals” to 877-877.

The operator will ask for an address or even an intersection, such as the corner of Flatbush Avenue and Avenue L. They will then give you a few places you can go.

The food, they promise, will be "delicious sandwiches, tasty salads, fresh fruit, cold milk."

It's for kids from infancy to age 18, regardless of income, school status, or whether they have ID. No papers are required.

Hours

The free lunch and breakfast are available every weekday:

Breakfast: 8:00 a.m. - 9:15 a.m.

Lunch: 11:00 a.m. - 1:15 p.m.
