We’ve listened, learned,
and now we’re bringing
Range back.

For over a decade, the Range app has helped families find where free meals are served when school is out for the summer. Our team is committed to sharing where food resources are located across the country, and it took time and generous funding to consider how we might rethink Range to benefit from new technology.

Range is now a web app you can use on any device to find local sites where free meals are available. During the summer of 2026, the sites you’ll find on Range are for school-aged youth when school is out. In the near future, Range will include food and meal sources that are available year round for anyone.

We’d like you to be a part of Range’s future. Do you work at a pantry or another type of organization that provides meals or food to folks in your community? If you’re interested in helping make Range a tool that includes your community’s food resources or you’d just like to get involved, please get in touch with us. We’d like to know you.

  • Public librarians for expanding the number of sites across the country and for making sure communities can find and access food resources.

  • Pennsylvania Department of Education for tirelessly promoting Range as a resource for families, and for being so generous with your time and perspectives.
