    Title: National Hunger Clearinghouse Database Forms (FNS 543 and 
FNS 543A).
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0474.
    Summary of Collection: The National Hunger Clearinghouse FNS-543 
form collects develops and distributes information and resources to 
help build the capacity of emergency food providers to address the 
immediate needs of struggling families and individuals while promoting 
self-reliance and access to healthy food. The Clearinghouse includes 
the National Hunger Hotline, which refers people in need anywhere in 
the U.S. to food pantries, soup kitchen, government programs and model 
grassroots organizations.
    The FNS-543A is the instrument used to voluntarily collect 
information about summer meal sites from State agencies. It collects 
site name, location and operating details such as dates and times of 
the day that the sites are in operation that provide summer meals to 
children 18 years and younger in low-income communities during the 
summer.
    Section 26 of the National School Lunch Act, which was added to the 
Act by Section 123 of Public Law 103-448 on November 2, 1994, mandated 
that the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) enter into a contract with a 
nongovernmental organization to develop and maintain a national 
information clearinghouse of grassroots organizations working on 
hunger, food, nutrition, and other agricultural issues, including food 
recovery, food assistance and self-help activities to aid individuals 
to become self-reliant and other activities that empower low-income 
individuals.
    Need and Use of the Information: FNS will collect information to 
provide a resource for groups that assist low-income individuals or 
communities regarding nutrition assistance program or other assistance. 
The information aids FNS to fight hunger and improve nutrition by 
increasing participation in the FNS nutrition programs through the 
development, coordination, and evaluation of strategic initiatives, 
partnership, and outreach activities.

for-profit and Not-for-profit institutions (600).
