Founded in 2009 by Chef Ann Cooper, a pioneer in the fields of school food reform and childhood nutrition, Chef Ann Foundation believes that every child deserves access to fresh healthy food every day so that they can establish healthy eating habits to last a lifetime. We think the greatest impact can be had through changing school food. By providing school communities with tools, training, resources and funding, we enable schools to create healthier food and redefine lunchroom environments. To date, we've reached over 7,000 schools and 2.6 million children in all 50 states.
