Participating sponsors can be reimbursed up to the full operating co6ts of the pro gram and for administrative costs related to planning, or ganizing, and supervising the food service. Eligible sponsors include ci ty government agencies, coun ty and muncipal school sys tems, recreation depart ments, churches, and social organizations. Major eligibility require ments are: -Sponsors must operate as a nonprofit organization. -Sponsors must show evi dence of their financial and ■BeBBBBBBeQOQ< c administrative capability to operate the program. -Sponsors must make child ren eat their meals at the designated site.
