Spotlight of the Month
Celebrating those who make it all possible!
"Why do I keep coming back to volunteer at Fit-2-Serve? What's not to love? There's great volunteers & staff & we get the opportunity to get kids excited about nutrition & food all while having lots of fun! It's the perfect start to a Friday morning. Fit-2-Serve has allowed me to blend my love for teaching & nutrition together all while meeting some fantastic people & kids. The curriculum is great. It blends classroom knowledge & hands on cooking while allowing the kids to make & try new things. From smoothies to carrot cookie shapes & turkey feather fruit kabobs, we not only teach the kids healthy eating habits that will last forever, but also independence & confidence. There's nothing better than hearing kids say "I can't cut" or "I don't like that", then hearing them say "look I'm doing it!" or "that tastes awesome!". Fit-2-Serve isn't just a place where I volunteer, it's a place that has allowed me to connect with others who share the same passion for healthy eating & cooking & a place that I know I'll leave with a smile on my face every single time."
"Visiting the classrooms each month has been so rewarding! I have enjoyed watching the kindergarteners learn about agriculture & the beauty of nature & how it affects their daily life. What was most enjoyable was listening to my kids come home and show off their artwork and tell me what they learned."
