North Brevard Charities Sharing Center, Inc. will once again be conducting its “Spring Feeding Program.” Many children rely on free or reduced-price school lunches as a major source of nutrition, in fact for many children this is the best meal of the day they will receive. That is why NBCSC conducts this program, to fill in the gap that is left open while children are off school. Families can sign-up for assistance Monday-Friday from 9 A.M. - 11 A.M. at the service office. Items such as birth certificates, ID’s for adults, Social Security Cards for all household members, proof of household income, and proof of residence are needed to sign-up. For more eligibility information please contact the service office at 321-269-6555. And for those who would like to donate to this program please do not hesitate to contact us; donations of funds, materials, and volunteer time are always needed and very helpful, thank you!
