The New Jersey Department of Agriculture is looking for organizations interested in providing meals for needy children this year under the federally funded Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). Locally, approved sponsors including school districts, local government agencies, camps, or private nonprofit organizations run SFSP.

SFSP is the single largest Federal resource available for local sponsors who want to combine a feeding program with a summer activity program.

The annual application process begins in March and continues through May.
