Meals for Children available on Wednesdays for pick-up at Humke Elementary
Meals are provided to children ages 18 and under through the USDA Child Nutrition Program.

These meals are available for pick-up at Humke Elementary School (500 S Section St, Nekoosa, W) every Wednesday from 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm. Pick-up of the meals is located in the circle drive-way in front of the school.

Children do not need to be present for meal pick-up due to the new USDA guidance. Siblings of school-age children may also receive meals. Duplicate meals are not allowed.

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
