San Diego Friends!⁠
⁠
This year has been one of transition, growth, and determination for Brighter Bites San Diego. Following the +BOX merger with Brighter Bites earlier this year, our team has been hard at work strengthening partnerships, aligning systems, and laying the foundation for a stronger, more sustainable future.⁠
⁠
We’re thrilled to share that Brighter Bites San Diego is now active at 9 schools across North County, supporting 925 families with fresh produce and the tools to build healthier habits at home!...and more growth to come in 2026.⁠
⁠
An anonymous local donor has pledged to match all gifts, up to $100,000, through December 31. Every dollar you give will be doubled—helping us provide nourishment today and healthier outcomes for the future. Please consider donating to support our San Diego program today!⁠

We had the BEST time with the 3rd graders at Kashmere Gardens Elementary!⁠
⁠
The class had a blast making our “Better Than Ranch” dip and “Yellow Smoothie” recipe. It was the perfect mix of hands-on learning and tasty fun — every table got to measure, mix, and create their own recipe! 🥕🍋🥰⁠
⁠
⁠
The kiddos were so excited, and they even received take-home recipe cards to share with their families. Nothing beats seeing their smiles and curiosity in action!

We were lucky to receive donated Fruit Bliss Mini Apricots in NYC, enjoyed by hundreds of Brighter Bites families—including those at PS 19Q in Queens 💛⁠
⁠
We swapped raisins for the fresh, flavorful apricots in our Crunchy Celery & Apple Salad, and families loved it. Fresh swap, big flavor! 🍎🥬⁠
⁠
Fruit Bliss has been a valued partner of Brighter Bites for several years, and we’re deeply grateful for their continued support in helping families discover delicious, nourishing foods.
