Apply for a Grant

The Chef Ann Foundation offers two grant opportunities—Get Schools Cooking and Salad Bars to Schools—to support schools in the transition to scratch cooking and healthier school meals. As our most in-depth program, Get Schools Cooking works with districts to identify specific operational changes, guiding them towards a scratch cook operation. Salad Bars to Schools grants salad bars to food service departments, supporting the effective implementation of salad bars in school lunchrooms.

Project Produce is an inactive program designed to support nutrition education and fresh produce tastings in school lunchrooms. Check out the Project Produce Case Studies to learn how grantees provided a wide variety of lunchroom education activities to their students. Interested in restarting this program?
