This $2,973,605.00 federal Project Grant award is provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service under the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (CFDA 10.582). The grant will be used by the Idaho State Department of Education to provide free fresh fruits and vegetables to elementary schools across Idaho with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price meals through the National School Lunch Program. The program aims to increase fruit and vegetable consumption, promote healthy eating habits, and enhance overall nutrition and diet quality among young students. The grant period runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025. As the state educational agency, the Idaho State Department of Education will distribute these funds through sub-awards to local school districts, charter schools, and other educational entities to implement the program and deliver the produce to eligible elementary schools throughout the state.
