The Spartanburg Housing Authority is a sponsor of the Summer Food Service Program a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) federally funded program that is administered by the South Carolina Department of Education. The goal of this program is to aid in ensuring that children continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session. The program was implemented at SHA to provide nutritious free meals to children age 18 and under at public housing sites and surrounding summer programs within Spartanburg County.  The program runs through the entirety of the summer beginning on the first Monday after the conclusion of the regular school year. In 2018, SHA's pilot program year, SHA was able to provide approximately 220 children with 1,232 breakfast, 10,032 lunches, and 8,829 snacks, five days a week, over the course of 53 days.
