Dinners For Kids

Dinners For Kids Fighting childhood hunger by preparing and distributing healthy meals to local children. Founded by David Tevet, Owner, Ollies Restaurant.

More then 1 in 4 children in the United States do not receive nutritious food on a consistent basis. In Luzerne County, more then 10,500 children are food insecure. Children who lack a nutritionally balanced diet are more likely to exhibit behavior problems, poor school performance, and impaired cognitive development.

Food insecurity impacts more children than many of us realize. Millions of kids across the United States live in households where meals are uncertain. That uncertainty can affect their health, learning, and sense of stability.

At Dinners for Kids, we work to close that gap right here in NEPA by bringing reliable, nourishing dinners directly to children who need them most. Every meal delivered is one less worry for a child and their family. Help turn these statistics into stories of support, visit dinners4kids.org to donate or volunteer. đź’›

It takes a village, and our village shows up every week. đź’› Three times a week, volunteers come together to pack hundreds of meals with care before they head out to children across our community. It is teamwork in action, all working toward one simple goal...making sure kids have the food they need to thrive!

Fifteen years of nourishing kids, neighbors, and community! đź’›

In 2011, Dinners for Kids began with a simple but powerful commitment: delivering just six meals per week, year-round, directly to children’s homes. What started as a small, heartfelt effort by founders Edna and David Tevet has grown into a program that now serves more than 240 at-risk children across Wilkes-Barre, the West Side, and the Dallas area providing over 75,000 meals each year.

This milestone is a testament to the power of consistency and compassion! Join us for the next 15 years (and beyond) fighting childhood hunger! Visit https://dinners4kids.org/ to get started.
