“As Mayor, I’m proud that Cambridge has been a leader in ensuring children have access to
healthy food. From providing free school meals for all students to supporting food pantries,
summer meal programs, and community partnerships that help families put nutritious food on the
table, Cambridge has made addressing food insecurity a priority. Joining the Mayors Alliance to
End Childhood Hunger is an opportunity to build on that work alongside mayors across the
country who share the same commitment: ensuring every child has the nourishment they need to
learn, grow, and thrive,” said Mayor Sumbul Siddiqui.
