We’re building a better food system for our children and communities through fresh meals, hands-on education, local agriculture, and pathways to opportunity.
Creating Impact Across West Virginia
Every meal served, partnership formed, and program launched helps strengthen the food system children and families rely on every day.
How We Create Change
Project Healthy Kids works across the food system to connect fresh food, local agriculture, nutrition education, workforce development, and community partnerships.
Building Scalable Food Infrastructure for Appalachia
We’re building scalable food systems that nourish children and strengthen communities across West Virginia.
By connecting local farms, community kitchens, schools, recovery programs, and institutional partners, we’re helping communities build resilient food systems that nourish children while strengthening local economies.
Together, We Can Build Healthier Futures for Children and Communities.
By investing in food systems, education, workforce pathways, and local partnerships, we can create long-term change that nourishes future generations across Appalachia.
Real Stories. Lasting Impact.
“The food at school is really yummy. I’ve tried vegetables I never thought I would eat, and now I like way more foods than I used to. I even ask my family if we can make some of them at home.”
When children have opportunities to explore healthy foods through hands-on learning and nutritious meals, they build confidence, curiosity, and habits that can extend far beyond the classroom.
Powered Through Partnership
Our work is made possible through collaboration with foundations, schools, community organizations, local farms, and statewide partners committed to building healthier futures for children and communities.
