Description

We've developed a unique fundraising opportunity for schools that also encourages students and their families to eat more fruits and vegetables. Fresh to You is a fundraising initiative for K-12 schools in BC. Schools participating in Fresh to You Fundraiser receive bundles of locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables to sell to family and friends as a fundraiser. 

Why Fresh to You?

  • It promotes healthy food choices to students and their families.
  • It provides high-quality, fresh, and seasonal produce for a healthy fundraising option.
  • All of the produce is locally grown from BC suppliers, so your school is supporting BC farmers and growers in your community.
  • It provides information for students and families about fresh, locally grown vegetables, as well as recipes for enjoying the produce at home.
  • Your school receives a 40% profit on all of the bundles sold.

We are looking for a few volunteers to help us on the packing day to put together the boxes of bags and resources for the schools to be able to put their bundles together. We will be working in a cool environment, so it is advisable to dress in layers.
