Pasadena Unified School District Offers Free Summer Meals Program

Program provides nutritious breakfasts and lunches for all area children 18 and under

The Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) will provide free meals to children and youth throughout the summer months as part of the 2025 Summer Food Program.

The program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and PUSD’s Food and Nutrition Services Department, will offer free breakfasts and lunches to all children 18 years old and younger at various locations across Pasadena, Altadena, and Sierra Madre.

No registration is required to participate in the program, and children do not need to be enrolled in PUSD schools to receive meals.

The summer food initiative is operated by PUSD in conjunction with the city of Pasadena and other organizations.

According to PUSD, the USDA’s Free Summer Meals program ensures children continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session. Parents can bring their children to any of the community feeding sites to receive free breakfast and lunch.

Families seeking more information about the program, including a complete list of participating sites, can visit the district’s website at https://www.pusd.us/summermeals or contact PUSD Food and Nutrition Services at (626) 396-5850.
