About this grant
This grant will provide additional support to the Fair Food Network’s Double Up Food Bucks Project in Flint. The project provides incentives for supplemental nutrition assistance program recipients to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables and dairy products at the Flint Farmers’ Market and grocery stores in Flint. Good nutrition, especially foods high in iron, calcium, and vitamin C, can help mitigate the impact of lead exposure to Flint children and adults.
