Prevention Connections School Vending program
The Prevention Connections Vending program is accepting applications for up to 75 mini-grants for $500 each. The mini-grants are to support a healthy vending initiative in Virginia Title I middle schools as well as high schools with at least a 40% enrollment in the school's free and reduced lunch program.
This is a great opportunity for schools/students to look at what is offered in their vending machines during the school day.
To apply, visit http://www.preventionconnections.org
