After School Matters, Chicago’s largest provider of after school and summer programs for high school teens, has teamed up with Gate Gourmet to distribute up to 7,000 free box meals per week to After School Matters teens, their families and program instructors in the wake of the current COVID-19 health pandemic. The meal distribution is available two days each week at two Chicago locations. After School Matters teens and/or their family members as well as program instructors can come to one of the locations to pick up three meals per person. The meals are made possible through the support of an anonymous donor. For the latest information on After School Matters resources, visit: afterschoolmatters.org/asm-together
