Map: Here's Where Marion County Students Can Get Free Meals

Last Update: April 9 at 1 p.m.

More than 150,000 students in Marion County are out of school due to closures over the coronavirus. A majority of these students rely on free meals at their schools. In an effort to keep students healthy, schools districts and organizations throughout the city are offering free breakfasts and lunches to students at specific locations through May 1.

Indianapolis Public Schools has partnered with Gleaners Food Bank to provide one 17-pound box of food to families. The district will deliver packages to locations throughout the city on Mondays and Fridays.

IndyParks is also offering meals in various parks and other locations. Meal service runs Monday through Friday. Second Helpings is serving snacks to adults at some of these sites.

Indianapolis Public Schools compiled a list of community groups, food banks and other organizations offering meals and packaged food.
