I wanted to share this info on the Real Food Grants Program with my Canadian readers.  Hellmann’s is committed to making it easier for Canadians and their families to enjoy the pleasure of real food. As a result, Hellmann’s is providing $100,000 in Real Food Grants to support initiatives that bring Canadian families and kids together with real food in their community.
Who can apply?
- School Based Groups
- Community Groups
- Families
To be eligible, an initiative must either provide education to Canadian families and kids about real food, or connect Canadian families and kids with real food through an experience or event. Some examples are starting a community based garden or greenhouse, organizing a community real food festival or event or starting an in-school real food lunch program.
Applications are due by June 30, 2010 so don’t delay. $100,000 can go a LONG way in making a difference in your community!
Congratulations Hellmann’s. We will certinly check for the Hallmann’s label. We do not buy food that we do not know where it comes from. This limists our selection quite a bit, since many foods say `prepared for’ such and such a company. We like to buy local so we are not getting a mix of sprays and chemicals from all different countries. Marion Goodlyn
