Summer Lunch 2024


From our Summer Lunch Program May 28 - July 26, to our Back2School Fun Fair August 5th, we've made sure our neighbors and this community could count on us!


We have provided access to everything from nutritious lunches, weekend meals and

fresh produce, to school supplies, backpacks, dental checks, haircuts and more,

and eliminated some of the uncertainty for our families so

they could enjoy the summer and have a great start to the school year.



It's a Wrap!


Our Summer Lunch Program wrapped up with a Grande Finale on Friday, July 26th thanks to many hands and many hearts being involved. This 9-week program provided over 24,985 meals ensuring our Frisco and Frisco ISD kiddos had access to nutritious food throughout the summer months.


Did You Know?


Over 14% of Frisco ISD students qualify for free-reduced meals at school. While heartbreaking to realize, the silver lining is that organizations like Frisco Family Services are here to bridge the gap in helping prevent hunger not only during summer months, but all year round to our community.


A sincere THANK YOU to all of our faith-based partners including Grace Church, Faith Bridge Presbyterian Church, St. Philip's Episcopal, Karya Siddhi Hanuman Temple, Frisco First Baptist Church, Frisco Bible Church, St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Potter's House of North Dallas, Stonebriar Community Church, Grace Avenue, United Methodist, Preston Trail Community Church, and all of our Frisco Family Services volunteers.


THANK YOU to Preston Trail for sponsoring and coordinating the Grand Finale as well as all of the vendors that participated.


This nine-week, critical program would not be possible without those who donate and help fund our programs like Summer Lunch. We THANK YOU all.

Back2School Fun Fair!


Back2School Program More than Just School Supplies

On Monday, August 5th, eligible students received new backpacks, school supplies, gift cards for shoes and clothing, and personal hygiene kits, while parents had the opportunity to connect with multiple, helpful community resources.
