For Jefferson County Youth & Families
Fueled by our Y’s commitment to making sure that children/teens have enough food over longer school breaks, we have established pop-up sites in various locations where pre-registered families with children ages 0-18 years old, who live in East Jefferson County, will be provided with build-your-own-food-boxes and occasional grocery vouchers/gift cards.
About the Program/Sign Up Form
If you have children/teens that live in Jefferson County and would like to sign up for gorgeous, local produce (from Red Dog and other farms) plus organic and other healthy self-stable foods through our next build-your-own-food-box distribution, please complete the sign up form below. SIGN - UP FORMS WILL OPEN 2 WEEKS BEFORE DISTRIBUTIONS DATES. Youth are also welcome to complete the form themselves.
2025 Distribution Dates
We will have 4 pop-up sites around East Jefferson County ahead of and/or during school breaks. See the following list for distribution locations and dates.
We give thanks to our ever-generous, inspiring community for making sure that every child and family has access to the food we all need and deserve.
