All of our sites are within communities where the free and reduced lunch rate is over 70%.

Eat Right Education Series
Education and awareness are key to shaping a healthier future to any family. Many lack the knowledge they need to make educated choices to avoid foods that are high in sugar and lack any nutritional value.
Obestity rates and related disease are at epidemic levels within the United States. This can be easily prevented simple by changing one’s diet habits. We provide a variety of workshops through our Eat Right Education Series including:

The workshops are open to the public. Check back to our website for workshop dates and times.
Power Up Pledge
Children learn best when they have a model to follow and reference. Wan Bark Foundation developed the Power Up Pledge to provide that model that stems from not just one individual but from an entire community. The old adage says, “it takes a village to raise a child.”
Promote health and wellness for the youth in your community and commit to the Power Up Pledge.
Each year we will announce the Power Up Pledge counts by county, let’s show our children that we are dedicated to health and better eating habits.
