1, 2, 3… crunch!
The Great Big Crunch is a moment on March 6th where we gather and bite into a delicious, crisp local Ontario apple (but it can be any healthy food!) Our team participates every year to support the Coalition for Healthy School Food‘s goal of securing nutritious school food for every child in Canada.
School food programs help kids learn about nutrition and provide some financial relief for families, and without them, there are inconsistencies among schools, a lack of nutritional education, and most importantly, kids that are not always given the chance to reach their full potential.
We encourage you to join us in making some noise for healthy school food this year! We send out apples to our partners with the hopes they’ll participate and cause a crunch commotion.
Interested in learning about progress made? Read all about it in The Great Big Crunch Activity Toolkit.
To take your crunch to the next level, you can register your school in the coming years. This will help the Coalition count how many participants are fighting for healthy school food!
