Food Literacy Center has been chosen by Sacramento Region Community Foundation to participate in an historic event on May 6 called the BIG Day of Giving. This 24-hour online giving challenge is an opportunity for 400 area nonprofits to benefit, and is a collaboration among our local community foundations: Sacramento Region Community Foundation, Placer Community Foundation and Yolo Community Foundation.

Help us put the hot pepper hop in this day! Please make our kids your priority!

Your donation on May 6 will prevent childhood obesity by inspiring kids to eat their veggies through cooking and nutrition classes.
