Meal Distribution: Here is the schedule for August 17 - 28. Unlike these past few months where we were able to provide a meal for every youth 1 - 18 years old, we are only able to provide meals to PVUSD students and there are assigned pick up locations for each school. There are 14 school sites where meals can be picked up between 7 - 10 AM. We are thrilled to announce that Second Harvest will once again be partnering with PVUSD and providing grocery bags at WHS on Mondays, EA Hall in Wednesdays, and at Freedom on Fridays. This year, all except 5 of our schools (AHS, AJrH, Mar Vista, Rio del Mar and Valencia) automatically qualify for free meals! Families in the 5 schools receive either free or paid meals based on individual meal eligibility. Families in those 5 schools who wish to apply for free meals, may apply online at a link found at pvusdschoolfood.net.
