Natalie’s Orchid Island joins lunchbox pledge

Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company is now a sponsor of “Power Your Lunchbox Pledge”; a back-to-school campaign developed by Produce For Kids, a non-profit dedicated to educating families on the benefits of healthy eating, providing simple meal solutions and raising money for children’s non-profit organizations.

The “Power Your Lunchbox Pledge” encourages parents to find ways to improve the quality and nutritional value of the lunches and snacks they prepare for their kids to take to school every day, according to a press release. Parents who take the pledge unlock healthy recipes, tips, prizes and products on the Power Your Lunchbox web site.

For each pledge taken, Produce For Kids and its partners will make a collective donation to Feeding America.

In 2015, 10,797 families and classrooms took the Power Your Lunchbox Pledge to pack a healthier lunch and helped Produce For Kids donate 118,767 meals to families in need.

Pledging for 2016 opens on Aug. 8. To learn more and take the pledge, visit the Power Your Lunchbox website.
