Produce for Kids® (PFK) promotes the benefits of healthy eating and supports worthy causes for children.
PFK educates shoppers about healthy eating through promotional campaigns in the produce department of local grocery stores across the U.S. These campaigns combine advertising, in-store display materials, public relations and Internet marketing. Also included in-store and online are fun games and activities for kids and resources for parents.
Since its creation in 2002 by Shuman Produce Inc., PFK has raised more than $2.5 million for children’s non-profit organizations including Children’s Miracle Network® hospitals.
The Produce for Kids program has been embraced by the produce industry and covers retailers in more than 24 states and incorporates suppliers in every major produce category.
PFK also provides elementary school teachers with educational materials and fun interactive activities designed to teach kids about healthy eating.
Produce for Kids®and Publix teamed up in June to create miracles for kids. From June 3 to June 30 shoppers at Publix supported the hospital when they bought designated fresh produce items sold at all Publix stores. All funds directly benefit our local Children’s Miracle Network hospitals, Arnold Palmer Medical Center and Shands Children's Hospital.
Produce for Kids® promotes healthy lifestyles for children by educating kids and parents about the benefits of eating fresh fruits and vegetables while also supporting worthy children’s causes, such as the Children’s Miracle Network hospitals.
A GREAT BIG THANK YOU to Kim and the Produce for Kids team for supporting Children's Miracle Network!
