About this grant
10 Cents a Meal in Flint and Genesee County for Michigan’s Kids & Farms is a state-funded program providing schools and early childhood education centers with match incentive grant funding up to 10 cents per meal to purchase and serve Michigan-grown fruits, vegetables and legumes. The program is also a statewide food systems-change initiative that empowers schools and early childhood education centers to purchase healthy, locally grown produce, improve nutritional options for children and build local economies. This grant will support Groundwork Center for Resilient Communities to provide technical assistance, education, networking and awareness of the program’s benefits to the Flint community and its supporting organizations.
