FoodCorps sets students up for success by working with schools to provide nourishing meals, nutrition education, and community engagement through food. We get kids excited about eating fruits and veggies, support school nutrition staff in bringing locally grown and freshly prepared meals onto lunch trays, and work with families to create positive school food environments for all kids. FoodCorps’ proven programming reaches thousands of students each year, helping to support kids' health, academic progress, and connection to their community through food in school. ### **Who We Are:** FoodCorps is a national nonprofit advancing child well\-being through food in school. FoodCorps partners with students, families, and communities to champion nourishing food at local, state, and national levels. Our AmeriCorps members support schools in providing nutritious meals, locally\-informed food education, and welcoming school environments that set kids up for positive, vibrant relationships with food. Building on this program, we develop leaders, grow networks, and advocate for policies in service of every kid’s health and well\-being. FoodCorps is working toward a world where, by 2030, all 50 million public school students have access to food education and nourishing meals in school.
