A large percentage of the children in Fannin County are eligible for free and reduced-cost meals during the school year which are not available during summer break. Faith Presbyterian Church, Fannin County Family Connection, Snack in a Backpack, and St. Luke’s Anglican Episcopal Church have joined together to offer a free Summer Meal Program for Fannin children in need ages 17 and under. Due to inflation, the increase in food costs and shortages at the Food Banks all donations are very welcome and are needed to provide meals fresh produce for the families with children.
