The Racine Dominicans Announce a Matching Grant for Racine Summer Meal Program for Kids
June 3, 2026
Help Us Feed Racine Families This Summer! Just one year ago, the Benner Beats Hunger program started with a simple goal: providing summer meals to families near the Geneva Street COP House. In just ten weeks, they served over 3,000 meals to children, parents, and caregivers. This summer, the program is expanding to ensure no child in Racine goes hungry. Free meals will be provided at:
- George Bray Neighborhood YMCA
- Dr. John Bryant Community Center
- Tyler Domer Community Center
- Community Center at Douglas Park
- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center
- Local Parks: Including Hantschel Park and the Children’s Cove at North Beach
- RUSD Summer School Sites
- St. Catherine's High School
- Rural Outreach: Two new locations dedicated to families facing food insecurity outside the city limits
The Racine Dominican Sisters are matching all donations up to the $50,000 goal, meaning you can double your impact today. Your donation ensures that both lunch and supper are available to children and the adults who care for them. When basic needs are met, our community thrives. Most importantly, you are ensuring that Racine’s children return to school this fall well-fed, healthy, and ready to learn.
