More than 12% of King County students live in poverty. When families are forced to make choices between food on the table or keeping the lights on, kids often go without. Fuel Your Future levels the playing field by increasing access to healthy foods.
Our Fuel Your Future AmeriCorps members have been hard at work partnering with schools throughout King County implementing Breakfast After the Bell, launching after-school supper programs, and hosting community connection events.
Family Market Nights are an afterschool opportunity to continue building out nutrition hubs in schools by engaging kids and families in building healthy habits through cooking demonstrations, nutrition education activities, and exposure to fresh produce.
Join us as we collaborate with Concord Heart Health Family Night. Kids can participate in a jump rope competition, make vegetable art, and learn how blood pressure affects mood all to earn market bucks to then shop the fresh produce market!
