The USDA’s Summer Food Service Program Meals served: 68,030 sponsored by Rowan-Salisbury Schools Child Nutrition Services was one of the most successful Increase from 2013: 11,000 programs conducted in the past several years. Community leaders and volunteers, school leadership and churches in our area made it possible to feed 68,030 students in Rowan County this summer. That is an increase of over 11,000 meals from 2013! Several new sites opened in the county where needed for summer meals for students, but there are areas of the county that could still use our help.
