BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â In a normal year, the Buffalo School District would serve around 29,000 meals a day through the Child Nutrition Program, which is mostly federally funded. Since the pandemic started, the Food Services Director, Bridget OâBrien Wood, said they have only been preparing between 10,000 to 12,000 meals a day.
âWe get reimbursed for every meal we serve,â Wood said. âBecause our meals have dropped significantly, we lost a lot of revenue because we donât have the capacity to serve 29,000 kids if they are not in school.â
