Help Slow Food USA Serve up Real Food in Schools

Advocates within the food movement – along with politicians on both sides of the aisle – have long said that a strong grassroots voice demanding a transformation of the food system is critical to creating corporate and political change. The Time for Lunch campaign is our chance to demonstrate that the demand is stronger than anyone predicted.

This Labor Day is our first opportunity to show that our movement is strong and far-reaching.  But we need to make sure the media and national leaders hear the message. You can sign the petition, make plans to participate in the National Day of Action, and perhaps even write your Congressman. Today, I’m asking for another critical element of support: your financial contribution. Your gift will allow us to take the message to policy makers and the media that people in this country care about what kind of food they eat and what we serve our children at school.

Your support is our most important tool in the effort to create a better food system. I hope you’ll take a moment today to make a donation to this important effort.

Yours truly,

Josh Viertel
President, Slow Food USA
