This $5,236,632.00 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service, under the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (CFDA 10.582), provides cash grants to the Commonwealth of Virginia State Board of Education to distribute free fresh fruits and vegetables to elementary schools with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price meals. The goal is to increase fruit and vegetable consumption, promote healthy eating habits, and enhance overall nutrition and diet quality among young students. The state agency then sub-awards the funds to local school districts like Dickenson County Public Schools, Page County Schools, Martinsville City Public Schools, Brunswick County School Board, Greensville County Public Schools, Prince Edward County Public Schools, Newport News Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Roanoke City Public School District, Harrisonburg City Public Schools, Lynchburg City Public Schools, and others to implement the program at the local level by providing free fresh produce to eligible elementary schools.
