Feeding poor students
Many schools in the US are still closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic(大流行). Some students are worried about keeping up their studies. But students in the Chicago Public Schools (CPS,芝加哥公立中学联盟) system are also worried about their meals.
More than 75 percent of the 355,000 CPS students come from poor families, according to Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Each school year, CPS usually gives free breakfast, lunch and after-school snacks(零食) for all students. But now their schools are closed. What will poor students eat?
Luckily, CPS is able to give food to some students. They have opened meal sites (供饭点) and given grab—and-go meal kits (即取饭包)to students. The kits have enough food to last three days. CPS has given more than 21 million meals since their schools closed.
"We depend on (依赖)the school heavily for food," one student wrote on Twitter. "We feel warm and thankful to get meals at home."
Since March, other non-prof it(公益的) organizations in the US like the Greater Chicago Food Depository(大芝加哥食品仓库) have provided more than 470,000 meals for children. They sent the Lunch Bus, a refrigerated van(带冰箱的货车), to provide food in poor areas.
