Hunger Free Oklahoma Inc

Hunger free oklahoma's hunger outreach program connects people in need to federal nutrition programs through direct support, such as summer ebt, hunger free oklahoma's snap assistance hotline or www.meals4kidsok.org, and by connecting community partners to available federal nutrition programs. Addressing access to these programs will help alleviate family food insecurity. By collaborating with over 600 direct service providers and equipping them with outreach tools, education, training and technical assistance, research, and more for these programs allows our partners to focus on what they do best to serve their food-insecure clients and ensure those clients experience high quality service. This contributes directly to our mission, "leveraging the power of collaboration to solve hunger in oklahoma by improving systems, policies, and practices."

Hunger free oklahoma provided support for participating tribes to offer summer ebt in their tribal areas. Summer ebt is a federal program that provides benefits to buy groceries to qualifying families with school-aged children when schools are closed for the summer. Families can receive a food package valued at $120 per eligible child. This initiative includes support for tribal administration of summer ebt, providing vital nutritional support when children lack access to school meals.
