Summer Park Lunch Program

Our Summer Park Lunch Program is an 8 week outreach to local children who are at risk of going without a noon meal. Bootstraps supplies seven parks located in low-income neighborhoods with nutritious lunches.  Volunteers are needed to make and deliver these lunches.  A commitment of one day a week to one park location over the 8 weeks is helpful.

We work with the Beverly Recreation Department to offer our lunch program at the following parks:

• Ahearn Park
• Hannah's School
• Bessie Baker
• Bartlett Gardens
• Balch Street
• Holcroft Park
• Apple Village

We are in need of:

• Juice Boxes (100% Juice)
• Individually packaged snacks
• Granola bars
• Individually packaged cheese sticks
• Whole Fruits
• Individually packaged vegetables
• Individually packaged yogurts or gogurts

*We are trying to avoid peanuts and tree nut processed snacks due to allergies
