To help SFSP reach their 2015 goal of 200 million meals served nationwide, HUD is seeking capable and cooperative multifamily developments in Vermont to become a SFSP site, partnering with local sponsors and community volunteers in Vermont throughout the summer to serve meals to children and teens in need and reduce the nutrition gap between school and summer.
