Vermont Action for Healthy Kids Grant Opportunity

Vermont Action for Healthy Kids announces funding for six grants to implement the Fuel Up to Play 60 program.

Schools in Vermont may apply for $750 in funding to implement healthy eating and physical activity action strategies and a wellness promotion kickoff event using the Fuel Up to Play 60 Wellness Activation Kit.

Schools must be enrolled in the Fuel Up to Play 60 program in order to apply.  If you don’t already have a copy of the Wellness Activation Kit, sign up for your FREE kit at http://www.FuelUpToPlay60.com.
