Bibb Rec Center, church help feed kids during May

MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – During the month of May, the Macon-Bibb Rec Department will help a church distribute free meals to kids.

Abundant Word of Grace received a disaster relief funding grant to help feed the community.

The church partnered with the rec department to reach more children. Kids can receive a breakfast and lunch.

Ernstein Glover says these types of programs are helping during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We don’t really know how long this is going to last. That’s why it’s good [to have] this program because it’s hard. It’s hard for these itty bitty children,” she said.

Meals are offered Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Distribution locations:

• Frank Johnson Recreation Center (2227 Mercer University Drive)
• Bloomfield-Gilead Park (1931 Rocky Creek Road)
• Memorial Park (2465 Second Street)
• Rosa Jackson Recreation Center (1211 Maynard Street)
• South Bibb Recreation Center (7035 Houston Road)
• Freedom Park, (3301 Roff Avenue)
• Theron Ussery Park (815 North Macon Park Drive).
