USDA National School Lunch Program Equipment Assistance Grants

Closed


U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)

This grant program provides funding to state agencies, which then award subgrants to local educational agencies (LEAs) to purchase essential food service equipment. Priority is given to schools in underserved areas where at least 50% of students qualify for free or reduced-price meals. The funding supports the purchase of equipment valued over $1,000 to improve food safety, enhance meal service efficiency, and expand school breakfast programs. By ensuring schools have adequate kitchen infrastructure, this program helps improve nutrition and food security for students in need.
