Whole Foods Market is participating with Chef Ann Cooper to provide healthy salad bars to schools across the country. We are  jump starting the movement by raising money for a salad bar in at least one school in the communities surrounding each of our stores in the U.S. That’s almost 300 schools! You can help us reach this goal by donating to your local Whole Foods store and also by helping a school of your choice to apply for a grant.

A healthy salad bar in every school across America so all school kids may have access to fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and healthy proteins, every school day.

The time is ripe for 31 million schoolchildren. We need a solution and we need it now to deal with these unhealthy facts:

• According to The Center for Disease Control, children born in the year 2000, one‐third will contract diabetes. And, these children will be the first in our country’s history to die at a younger age than their parents.
• 70.1 percent of Americans are overweight; 4.3 million children ages 10 – 14 will become overweight or obese in the next 24 months.
• Rates of childhood obesity are soaring. About 12 percent of children ages 2 to 5 are obese compared with 17 percent of kids 6 to 11, and 18 percent of kids ages 12 to 19.
• “The number one thing any school can do to improve their school food is to add a healthy salad bar and allow children to make their own choices.” – Chef Ann Cooper, AKA The Renegade Lunch Lady and co founder of The Lunch Box Project and Food, Family, Farming Foundation.
