The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) provides reimbursement to sponsoring organizations for nutritious snacks served to children enrolled in day care and to children in afterschool programs. CACFP guidelines require healthy, nutritious snacks and alternative options for documented allergies/intolerances. Plus, our snacks are included in the weekly fees.
