About this archived opportunity

The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) will grant funds to eligible elementary school sites participating in the National School Lunch Program to provide students with a variety of free, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks during the school day as a supplement to, and not part of, the school breakfast and lunch programs, and to teach students about good nutrition. The FFVP encourages schools to partner with other entities in the community to support their efforts. Grant EligibilityEligible School Food Authorities (SFAs) may receive an FFVP grant on behalf of the awarded elementary school sites. Examples of eligible SFAs include school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, private schools, or residential child care institutions operating the National School Lunch Program. More information about the FFVP grant eligibility and program requirements are available in the Grant Overview tab on the CDE California FFVP web page. Applicants that do not meet the FFVP grant eligibility and program requirements will not be awarded and should not apply.
