Mission Statement
The New York Coalition for Healthy School Food(NYCHSF) is a statewide nonprofit that works to improve the health and well-being of New York's students by advocating for healthy plant-based foods, farm to school programs (including organic where possible), the elimination of unhealthy competitive foods in all areas of the school (not just the cafeteria), comprehensive nutrition policy, and education to create food- and health-literate students.
Description
Though we are based in Mamaroneck, New York (Westchester county) we also have a major base of operation in Central New York (Ithaca), and in New York CIty, and do projects around the state, as we are a state-wide organization. Volunteer opportunities can be from anywhere in the state as long as the volunteer has access to email/internet and telephone.
