The federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service under the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (CFDA 10.582), aims to provide free fresh fruits and vegetables to elementary schools with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price meals. This $4,296,440.01 award to the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction supports the distribution of fresh produce to help increase fruit and vegetable consumption, promote healthy eating habits, and improve nutrition and diet quality among economically disadvantaged elementary school students across Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction has sub-awarded portions of this funding to local school districts, non-profit organizations, and other educational partners to implement the program at the local level. These sub-awards, totaling over $4.2 million, enable the delivery of fresh fruits and vegetables, nutrition education, and related services to elementary schools in communities such as Janesville, West Allis, Oshkosh, Beloit, Two Rivers, Menasha, Wausau, Appleton, Manitowoc, Cudahy, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Rapids, and Racine. This targeted approach aims to support student health and wellness by increasing access to nutritious foods and promoting healthy eating behaviors.
