SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. — Summer break is fun for kids, but unfortunately, it's a challenge for some parents who relied on free school lunches. Now, they have 10 more meals a week to plan for.“We have a very big need," said Food Program Manager for CAS , Mina Villicana.
“There are a lot of folks that have food instability," said CAS Principal, Charles Bertram."They aren't always able to access the funds to have meals, you know, as regular as they should be.” “We're not like a city, we don't have tons of food banks, and other services to offer people, so we just hope we can be that kind of an asset," Bertram said."We're going to build our budget every year to where this is a part of it.”“We understand if mom and dad brings them over, well, how am I gonna see the little kiddos and not mom and dad?” Villicana said.
