Sponsors are eligible organizations that are tax exempt and demonstrate the administrative and financial ability to manage the SFSP. Sponsors must provide a year round public service to the area in which they intend to provide the SFSP.
Sites are the locations where meals are served to children in a supervised setting. For sites to be eligible sites, they must serve children in low-income areas or serve specific groups of low-income children.
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor for the SFSP, contact the SFSP Team at MDE-SFSP@michigan.gov to receive a pre-qualification packet. Pre-qualification packets are typically available in January of each year and must be completed by April 4, 2024.

Unanticipated School Closure (USC-SFSP) allows sponsors that have been in SFSP within the past 2 years to serve meals at eligible sites when an emergency, such as a snow or extreme cold day, water main break, natural disaster, etc., occurs. This year MDE has been granted a waiver that allows for multiple meals to be served through the SFSP when a building is closed and no virtual school is available.

Rural Non-Congregate allows for multiple meals to be served to children in communities where no congregate meal service is available. Sponsors can provide households with up to 7 days worth of meals at one time. In order to run a RNC site, the site must qualify for traditional SFSP. If your site does not qualify, contact the SFSP team.
Rural Non-Congregate Training - This training is required for any sponsor planning to serve meals using the RNC option.
