Summer is the hungriest time of the year for many kids. Students rely heavily on meals served at school throughout the year. Free meal programs, like the Poe Center offers, help fill the gaps when school is out during the summer.
“Lunch with Poe” is organized in partnership with graduate students from Meredith College’s Nutrition Program.
