Feed Our Kids

A summer lunch program dedicated to feeding children in the Grapevine-Colleyville ISD area since 2005.

More Than a Meal

Meeting the Need

Over 30,000 lunches are distributed each summer to kids who normally rely on a school lunch program for their mid-day meal.

Beyond Food

Kids enjoy fun games and activities with volunteer groups who help nourish their minds and their bodies.

Community Supported 

This program is largely funded and operated by the generous local businesses and organizations.

Volunteer/Sponsor FAQ

 What are the Feed Our Kids dates?

Feed Our Kids starts the Tuesday after the last day of school and continues through the Friday before the week that school starts.

How much do the lunches cost?

Typically, groups spend approximately $150 each day of service. However, a loaf of bread and peanut butter & jelly sandwich is fine, too!  GRACE usually can provide chips, fruit snacks, cookies, and other items to add to the lunches.

How many volunteers are needed?

The number varies each week, and more children are served at some locations compared to others.  We will keep track of numbers as the summer progresses and provide updates, so everyone has the most current, accurate information.

How many volunteers do I need?

We have found that most groups only need 10-15 volunteers each day. Duties can be divided in a number of ways - a preparation team, a serving team or everyone doing both. You would be surprised at how quickly the lunches can be assembled.

What time are the lunches needed?

Serving at each site is weekdays 11:45am to 12:45pm.

Do we just serve lunches?

Some groups only serve lunches, while others bring along child appropriate games, crafts, books, and music to interact with the kids. This decision is completely up to you and your volunteers.

Can we provide food other than sandwiches?

Of course! We have had many creative lunches in the past, including hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken fingers, pizza, tacos, and BBQ. 

What if we’re not comfortable setting up alone?

Completely understandable, especially if it’s your first time. A staff member or seasoned volunteer can meet your group and show you the ropes. 

What if I have additional questions?

Feel free to contact our Volunteer & Seasonal Program Coordinator at volunteer@GRACEGrapevine.org or 817.305.4647.
