30 Million Kids Eat School Lunch Everyday

30 Million kids eat school lunch every day. They aspire to be astronauts, professional baseball players, writers, singers, and teachers. They need healthy food in order to succeed and reach their potential. 2017 was a successful year for feeding our future. We are grateful to everyone who supported us, it has allowed us to continue helping schools across the country serve healthier food to our kids so they can develop good eating habits to address the issues of childhood obesity and health relate diseases.

The Chef Ann Foundation had several accomplishments that are detailed in the attached 2017 Impact Report. Highlights include:

Reaching nearly 190,000 children with Chef Ann Foundation programs
33% increase in The Lunch Box users
Over 20,000 downloads of resources and tools on The Lunch Box
Launched School Food Institute and registered over 400 students
Added 7 new school districts to the School Food Support Initiative program, which will benefit just under 19,000 students, 59% of whom qualify for free and reduced price lunch
Granted 321 salad bars to schools, bringing the year to date total to over 5,000
