We have officially kicked off our 2025 seasonal lunch program! Feed Our Kids Spring Break Edition set a new record! Our dedicated volunteers and families showed up through every spring weather condition, from cold and wind gusts up to 50 miles per hour to warm, bright sunshine! It was wonderful to reconnect with all the friendly and familiar faces. Most of our kids arrived excited and hungry directly from the City Spring Break Sports Camp!
During Spring Break, only two of our six summer locations serve lunch – and we were busy! We extremely grateful for our friends and volunteers from both First Baptist Grapevine and First Grapevine Methodist Church who hosted and served. We saw an increase in attendance from 2024 and served 653 lunches to our area kids. These groups served everything from homemade tamales to burgers hot off the grill!
As we prepare for Feed Our Kids Summertime Edition, we extend an invitation to you to volunteer with us. Feed Our Kids runs solely on volunteers. Choosing a day or week, volunteers provide and serve lunch at one of six sites within our community. Leading children in games, crafts, and activities are just icing on the cake to ensure that each child leaves with a full belly and a smile on their face. And, we work alongside of you to make the process easy! If you are unable to provide the man-power to volunteer,
GRACE also allows the option for businesses and organizations to sponsor a meal.
For more information on how you can be a part of Feed Our Kids, please contact GRACE’s Volunteer & Seasonal Programs Coordinator, Deb Ebeling at debeling@GRACEGrapevine.org. You do not want to miss this opportunity to make a difference in a summer day of a child!
