Funds for Healthy Eating
|
Funds for Fuel Up to Play 60 are offered to support sustainable changes to the school wellness environment. To get funding, your plan must consist of both Healthy Eating and Physical Activity Plays. Healthy Eating Plays are strategies to increase student access to (and selection of) nutrient-rich foods on the school menu. Plays include ideas for breakfast at school, cafeteria makeovers, and getting students to taste–and choose–nutrient-rich foods. Connect with your school nutrition department and visit the online Playbook to figure out which Play is best for your school. Then, apply for funding! |
Next Funding Deadline: February 1, 2012
Bring On Breakfast
These Plays are designed to expand the school breakfast program and make a healthy breakfast available to students outside the cafeteria, these include "grab-n-go" options, breakfast in the classroom, picnics, special breakfast events and more.
Cafeteria Restyle
These Plays are based on recommendations that a pleasant place to eat, appealing signs and foods and time to enjoy friends encourages student participation in school meals and may influence healthier choices.
Making Nutritious Foods Fun
These Plays provide ways to help students make healthy food choices through nutrition promotion strategies.
Try it, you’ll like it!
These Plays encourage students to try nutritious foods already on the school lunch menu, and new ones that everyone would like to add.
