Community Partnerships
Our commitment to nourishing our communities goes beyond nutrition education. We strive to support inclusive organizations that provide additional resources to diverse communities promoting better mental, financial, and physical health to individuals most in need.
Crystal Bridges
Every year, the Crystal Bridges Museum in Northwest Arkansas serves 50,000 K-12 students through their School Visit Program. Since 2014, Del Monte Foods has supported the museum and currently sponsors the School Visit Program enabling classrooms to participate completely free of charge.
Each classroom receives stipends to cover transportation and substitute teacher fees, as well as a free healthy lunch while at the museum. Providing a free lunch for every student is especially critical in removing barriers to access as most schools in the region enroll a majority of students in free/reduced lunch programs.
