FRANKLIN
The Cover 3 Foundation, headquartered in Franklin, announced recently that it is participating in the Summer Food Service Program, which will provide meals to eligible children during the summer months free of charge.

To be eligible to receive free meals at a residential or nonresidential camp, a child’s family must meet the income guidelines for reduced-price meals in the National School Lunch Program. Children who are part of households that receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (SNAP – formerly known as food stamps), receive benefits under the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations or Temporary Assistance to Needy Families are automatically eligible to receive free meals. Acceptance and participation requirements for the program and all activities are the same regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability.
