Sarah Moorefield, 40, is a single mother of two teenagers: 15-year-old Izzy and 13-year-old McKenna. Both girls are interested in horseback riding and sporty activities. Moorefield said it’s difficult to afford groceries for her teenagers on her single income, but it’s particularly hard in the summer when they don’t have access to schools that provide breakfast and lunches throughout the week for her girls and thousands of other families in the state.
