During the school year, many children rely on breakfast and lunch provided through public schools. When school closes, families must cover an additional ten meals per week for each child, creating immediate strain for households already operating near or below the poverty line.<br \/>\nThe Summer Kids Pantry will operate weekly from June through August 2027 through Shepherd\u2019s Table\u2019s client-choice pantry in Conway, South Carolina. Each Friday, children ages 4\u201318 will be able to select foods specifically designed for easy summer meals and snacks, including breakfast items, shelf-stable lunch foods, healthy snacks, and drinks. Caregivers will simultaneously have access to fresh produce and staple groceries to support household food stability.<br \/>\nThe program focuses on providing foods that children can safely prepare with minimal supervision, recognizing that many parents and guardians work irregular hours during the summer tourism season in Horry County. Items may include cereal, oatmeal cups, peanut butter, tuna, pasta meals, fresh fruit, yogurt, and packaged snacks.<br \/>\nShepherd\u2019s Table serves more than 12,000 neighbors annually and distributes hundreds of thousands of pounds of food across Horry County. Nearly 88% of participating households report annual incomes below $15,000, and more than 60% of local public school students qualify for free or reduced-price meals.<br \/>\nBy providing consistent weekly access to child-focused foods during the summer months, the Summer Kids Pantry helps reduce seasonal food insecurity, supports working families, and ensures children have reliable access to nutritious meals while school is not in session.\n<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: 20,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Committed:Shepherd\u2019s Table operating budget and in-kind food donations from regional food partners.
