Niagara Nutrition Partners
How a Rotary partnership has blossomed into this sustainable community organization.
 Marcy Heit is a founding member of Niagara Nutrition Partners and was present when Rotary began partnering with them in 1998.

Niagara Nutrition Partners, a program of Community Care, promotes the connection between healthy food choices and improved learning through the provision of breakfast, lunch and snacks at school or community-based programs. Currently, Niagara Nutrition Partners nurtures more than 200 school and community based programs, nourishing 17,000 children and youth each day!

Students who participate in student nutrition programs are improving their quality of life twofold. Not only are they optimizing their academic and behavioral performance during the school day, but they are also securing long-term health by learning healthy eating habits that will benefit them for a lifetime.
