This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $2,577,784.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service through the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (CFDA 10.582). The grant is designed to provide free fresh fruits and vegetables to elementary schools with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price meals through the National School Lunch Program. The grant funds will be used by the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction, the state education agency, to distribute sub-awards to various local school districts across North Dakota. These sub-grantees, including Williston Basin School District, Mckenzie County School District 1, Bismarck Public School District No.1, Wahpeton Public School District, Devils Lake Public School District, Fargo Public Schools, West Fargo Public Schools, Belcourt School District, New Town Public School District, and Valley City Public School, will utilize the funding to implement the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program in their respective elementary schools. This program aims to increase fruit and vegetable consumption, promote healthy eating habits, and improve overall nutrition and diet quality among elementary school students in economically disadvantaged communities across North Dakota.
