If a child is shy, they will attempt to comfort them and usually end up making them giggle. They create a such a welcoming energy when people are coming and going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In partnership with the USDA Summer Food Service Program more than 15,000 meals were provided to children who no longer had access to their school lunch program due to COVID-19.
