Food support for children who are closed for schools Free provision of retort foods, etc.Fukui March 7 1:07
As temporary infections such as elementary and junior high schools continue due to the spread of the new coronavirus, citizens' groups in Tsuruga City, Fukui Prefecture, have survived to try to support families who are having difficulty making meals for children due to working together. We have begun to collect retort foods and provide them to the homes where they need them free of charge.
This is because it is difficult to make lunch and lunch for children on weekdays in families such as dual-income families, so an organization that operates a children's cafeteria in Tsuruga City has begun to support such families.
On the 6th, a booth was set up in the city's supermarket, “Hearts Tsuruga Shop,” and five members of the group called on shoppers to provide surplus retort food at home and brought canned food and bread. People visited.
Some of them put oranges and dried potatoes in their bags.
The offer to provide food will be held for seven days, and the food gathered will be distributed free of charge to the desired household at the same location.
Mr. Yukie Nakamura, a group that manages the children's cafeteria “Aozora”, started the initiative, stating that “I want to provide continuous support as a children's cafeteria because there are children and parents who are in need of school closure.”
