Neighborhood Grants

Overview

<p>The Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation was founded in 2015 to drive lasting change in the health of our communities. We focus on empowering individuals, especially children, to live healthier lives by supporting programs which teach nutrition education and increase access to fresh, nutritious food. Our nonprofit partners work across all 19 states where Sprouts operates stores, teaching kids how to grow fresh fruits and vegetables in school and community gardens, and how to prepare them as part of a healthy, balanced diet.</p> <p>The Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation supports Projects/Programs that address children’s health in the following areas: 1) Nutrition/Healthy Food Education 2) Nutrition/Healthy Food Access 3) Healthy Lifestyle and Behaviors. Organizations that empower children and families to make healthy lifestyle choices and that address childhood obesity are ideal candidates for this grant application. Organizations that do not strongly align with the Foundation’s focus areas will not be considered. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded more than $7.2 million to 230 organizations across the country and built more than 60 school and community-based gardens.</p>
