[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.realfoodforkids.org/ This is the organization you’re looking for, OP. They helped usher in the salad bars. Hopefully the bars will return next fall. As someone who works in an FCPS, there are aspects of the meals that have improved greatly: the fresh fruits and veggies. Kids at my Title 1 school actually eat and enjoy them. They’re not canned. They’re fresh cut peppers, carrots, etc. The issue I have is with the portions. The upper grade kids need more food. [/quote] I was coming here to point to Real Food for Kids. The were started 10+ years ago to advocate for better food in FCPS. They have made a huge impact in that area and during the pandemic, flipped their model to actually providing food to food insecure families by partnering with local restaurants. They are an amazing not-for-profit. [/quote]
