Families in Southington can grab a free summer meal starting Monday.
"We have out volunteers packing, making sandwiches and a healthy opportunity for kids to not miss a meal during this summer season," said Missy Cipriano, the director of operations at Bread for Life in Southington.
Bread for Life will be delivering meals to camps and have grab-and-go lunches for children at the following locations:
- DePaolo Middle School: Monday/Wednesday/Friday 11:45 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
- Bread for Life Southington: Monday through Friday 11:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.

The Waterbury School District is also offering free breakfast and lunch meals daily at 18 locations, with the exception of the July 4th holiday.
