Free Meal Boxes for All Youth

All families are invited to pick up free meal boxes for their children. Meal boxes contain a weeks worth of breakfasts, lunches, and snacks that meet Minneapolis Public Schools Culinary & Wellness Services’ high standards for nutrition and quality ingredients. In every box, children will find school favorites, whole grains, fresh fruits, and vegetables. Milk is offered on the side.
  • All youth 18 & under can participate.
  • Youth do not need to be enrolled in MPS.
  • Youth, parents, or siblings can pick up one box per child, per week.
  • Pick up at any of the 27 school sites - no registration required.
  • All sites are open Monday through Friday, most from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and a few have extended hours of 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
For questions, please call 612-668-2820 or contact us.
