Kids and their families enjoyed delicious summer food and fun at a Fourth of July block party hosted by the North Sarasota Library. In partnership with All Faiths Food Bank and the Sarasota County School District, the event gave families an opportunity to have lunch together and spend some time at the library. Summer food assistance programs are in full swing for the children who face hunger during summer more than any other time of the year, but the collaboration made it possible for parents to eat and spend some time with their children. To help feed children all summer long, the School District is serving breakfast and lunch to kids at 40 locations, and the libraries are providing bags of food for children and teens to take home during regular hours. Participating public libraries include: Fruitville, Gulf Gate, North Sarasota, and Selby in Sarasota; Elsie Quirk in Englewood; North Port Public Library in North Port; and Jacaranda and Venice Public Library in Venice.
