Healthy School Food Brigade: Capitol Hill Advocacy Day

tpart Created by tpart

On June 24th, 130 parents and kids, including actresses Deidre Hall (Days of Our Lives) and Andrea Bowen (Desperate Housewives) traveled from nearly 30 states to Washington, D.C. to urge Congress to support healthy food choices in our nation’s schools.

Along with more than 120 meetings with Senators and Representatives, they delivered a petition with 50,000 signatures to the White House– signatures from this site, hard copy signatures secured by our NGO partners and signatures obtained by our online partner Mom’s Rising.

Below are photos of the Healthy School Food Brigade at the White House and on Capitol Hill, as well as a press release about day’s events and video footage.
