🍍We are feeling tropical with this #WellnessWednesday tip!

Add a tropical twist to your kids' lunches with pineapple! It's not only delicious but also packed with vitamins and antioxidants that support a healthy immune system. Try adding pineapple chunks to their lunchbox, blending it into smoothies, or topping their favorite yogurt. Give your kids a sweet and healthy boost!

Shining a spotlight on two incredible volunteers! 🔦

Meet Ms. Hill and Ms. Jones, who have shown unwavering dedication to #BrighterBites for the past two years.

We are grateful for eight years of partnership with @FreshPointInc, and we are thrilled to highlight our partnership!

This year alone, #FreshPoint has utilized its delivery expertise to help move over 3.6 million pounds of produce through their warehouses to deliver to 90 school sites, totaling almost 1,400 deliveries made through their support.

“FreshPoint provides fresh fruits and vegetables to our communities, and this partnership with Brighter Bites gives young students the opportunity to have access to fresh food which is particularly important with the smaller schools and intercity districts that Brighter Bites serves,” said FreshPoint CEO, Jim Procuniar. “Not only does this program help underserved students, but it also helps farmers we work with to utilize excess product that would otherwise go to waste by getting it to where it's needed most!”

Furthermore, FreshPoint is the only partner of Brighter Bites’ that has supported programming in multiple cities, including Washington D.C., Austin, San Antonio, Dallas and cities throughout Southwest Florida.

Thank you, FreshPoint, for all that you do!
