Summer is a time for kids to play, explore, and grow. But when school is out, many children lose access to the nutritious meals they depend on during the school year.

Feeding Louisiana, Feeding America, and our statewide network of food banks to help connect children and families with food resources throughout the summer months. Together, we support programs that help ensure kids have access to nutritious meals when school cafeterias are closed.

This National Dairy Month, let's raise a glass to one of nature's most complete nutritional packages: milk!

With 13 essential nutrients in every glass - including calcium, vitamin D, protein, potassium, and vitamin B12 - milk helps provide growing kids with the building blocks they need for strong bones, healthy development, and everyday energy!

But here in Louisiana, 1 in 5 children lives in a household that struggles to put enough food on the table. When families have to stretch every dollar, nutrient-dense foods like milk are often the first to go - not because parents don't want them, but because they're out of reach.

Hunger isn't just about empty plates. It's about missing nutrients during the years they matter most.

Today, we're recognizing the role milk plays in childhood nutrition - and the federal programs like WIC, school meals, and SNAP that help Louisiana families access it. Learn more about hunger in Louisiana at feedinglouisiana.org.
