WSAV kicks off ‘School's Out' summer food drive to fight childhood hunger
CHATHAM COUNTY, Ga. (WSAV) — School's out but hunger isn't taking a vacation. Thousands of children across Coastal Georgia face a summer without reliable access to meals. That's why WSAV is teaming up with Second Harvest for the third annual School's Out Summer Food Drive and the need has never been greater. The kitchen at Second Harvest prepares nearly 9,000 meals a day and the month of June is crucial to help fill the gap left when school meals go away. 'Hunger's not going to go away, and childhood hunger especially is not going to go away. A lot of the people with children that get these meals – both parents are working – and they just can't make ends meet. This is especially during the summer, they can't make meals,' said Mary Jane Crouch, the Executive Director of Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia. WSAV has teamed up with Second Harvest to fight rising food insecurity as school lets out. With 1 in 5 Georgia children facing hunger and 22 percent living below the poverty line in the Coastal Empire, this summer food drive is critical. WSAV is collecting shelf-stable, kid-friendly items like applesauce, oatmeal and soup, meals children can open, heat, and eat on their donation helps fill backpacks with nutritious food so kids can enjoy summer with sunshine, play and full stomachs. 'A lot of teachers talk about the academic loss during the summer, and a lot of that has to do with the lack of the proper nutrition. The children aren't getting those nutritious meals at school. This food drive in summer is really important to make sure when those kids go back to school, they're ready to learn,' said Crouch. WSAV's first donation event is Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Clearwave Fiber located on Canal Street in Pooler. If you can't make it today, there are other dates we have set up for drive-up, drop-off food collection.
