Range: For Youth
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
HELP YOUTH FIND A MEAL
Range is a mobile app that locates the time and place where free summer meals are served.
Only 1 in 7 youth who receive free and reduced meals at school take advantage of free meal programs during the summer. The result: Kids are hungry, and meals are left uneaten.
Government agencies, schools, nonprofits, and community members are working hard to promote the programs that feed youth during the summer. Range is part of that effort.
While anyone can use Range to find free meals for youth this summer, we'e focusing outreach on trusted adults who interact with youth/physicians, librarians, social workers, public parks counselors to increase visibility to the neighbourhood sites that provide this crucial service. Data from WhyHunger.org, a database of federal and grassroots nutrition programs, powers Range to locate reliable sources of healthy and free meals. We believe putting this app in the hands of many will increase the numbers of youth who are fed.
Download Range to locate the nearest sites serving free meals, and use the app to get directions, share information via text or email, and learn about key services the site offers.
Range won't solve hunger, but it might help a child find his or her next meal.
