Kids Feeding Kids Summer Educator Institute is planned for June 2-4 in Salina KS to train 5-10 FACS and Culinary teachers to implement the KFKids program in their classroom for the 2026-27 school year. The $5000 will fund the cost of training for 1-2 teachers.
These two teachers will each reach approximately 50 students who will prepare and distribute meals to a total of about 200 families. So approximately 300 people are impacted by the grant.
This project built upon our relationship with organizers of the Kansas Local Food Summit, sponsored by K-State and established a new partnership with the Salina KS school district where the KFKids summer training will be hosted.
