Success Story: Level the Field: Fueling Healthier Futures at Western Hills High School

Just over a year ago, Feed the Soul delivered an Eat Great 2B Great refrigerator to Western Hills High School to support more than 300 chronically food-insecure students, many of whom are unhoused.

For three years prior, FTS had provided fresh produce through our Healthy Holidays program, ensuring students had nutritious food over long weekends and school breaks. As food insecurity continued to rise, so did the need.

We expanded our partnership through Level the Field, with one simple goal: give students DAILY access to the fresh, nutritious foods they need to learn, grow, and reach their full potential

THE IMPACT

So far this year Feed the Soul has provided 1.53 million servings of fresh fruits and vegetable - the equivalent of nearly half a million nutritious meals!

We had a fantastic time returning to Xavier Jesuit Academy with Power Play, one of four lessons in our Power of Produce program!

Students discover how four simple daily choices can add up to better health, improved focus, and the ability to reach their full potential. And of course, students enjoyed "shopping" for fresh fruits and vegetables to take home and share with their families.

FTS is thrilled to join the Warming Cincinnati Event November19, 10am - 1pm, Cincinnati Library 800 Vine Street. A donation by Custom Design Benefits will ensure 100 families will take home a weeks work of fresh produce, just in time for the holiday season.
