In order to meet the growing need, we’re establishing new community partnerships, as well as working with our existing network of food partner agencies, to deploy new methods of food distribution. We’ve organized Pop-up Food Distributions across O‘ahu and Kaua‘i to provide emergency food, fresh produce, and other items to vulnerable households who have lost access to food due to COVID-19. Clink on the link above for information on rules and regulations for pop-up food distribution sites.
If you need general help, please call 211 and they can direct to other services.

2020 HIDOE Fall Grab & Go Meals (*updated 10-1-20)

The program will run from Monday, Oct. 12, through Friday, Dec. 18, and provide free meals to children ages 18 and younger. Children can receive free meals regardless of whether or not they are enrolled at the distribution site, are public school students, or eligible for the free or reduced-price lunch program. Meal distribution will be at lunchtime only. Pick-ups will include one lunch for that day and one breakfast for the following day, per child. Please contact your school for meal serving times. Pick-ups will be available Monday through Friday, excluding holidays and designated school breaks, at drive-thru lines at the campuses listed below and walk-up lines where possible.

Social distancing is required and masks must be worn at all times. There will be no personal interaction between serving staff and the community. All meals will be placed in take-out containers.
Families are encouraged to visit their nearest participating school and to not visit multiple locations to ensure that schools can produce the appropriate number of meals each day. Please contact the school of your choice for more details.
