GCSC will distribute food items to youth ages 18 and younger on TODAY March 30th from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. (Note time adjustment.)
The administration continues to monitor the process in an effort to improve the food distribution. A fleet of buses will be dispatched to locations across the city and will stay in these locations for 45-minute increments or until food items are exhausted. There will not be a second route, therefore, early arrival is suggested. Families should only get food from one site to ensure that the District can serve as many youth as possible.
