"As a mother of a six-yearold, I personally appreciate your efforts to promote healthy balanced options. These issues are a growing concern to our students, as well as the community at large."
 Diane K. Siri, Superintendent of Schools,
Santa Cruz, CA
"I think that our administration should look at this project that we have. It’s a plant-based lunch and it’s a wonderful thing. And to bring it into more schools and more work places too, would be a really great idea. We’re all going to benefit from it, there’s nothing that could go wrong."
11th grade student, Santa Cruz High,
Santa Cruz, CA
"After listening to your presentation, I am convinced that a Healthy Lunch Program is imperative if we expect our children to make good choices about their food intake, and ultimately their health."
Claudia Brown, Assistant Principal,
Leisure City, FL
"The response of the students has been very positive, and a number of students have decided to switch to a plant-based diet altogether. It is without reservation that I highly recommend this project."
Mimi Fortunato,
Teacher, New York, NY
"Your visit to my class and others at Arvida Middle School made an enormous impact. I have heard so many students talk about changing their eating and buying habits."
Linda Zack,
Teacher, Miami, FL
"The immune system of every unborn child in the world will soon be adversely and irrevocably affected by the persistent toxins in our food, air, and water."
Paul Hawken,
“The Ecology of Commerce”
