Dannon Company Announces 2012 Next Generation Nutrition Grants Program

The Dannon Company is accepting applications for its Next Generation Nutrition Grants Program.

In 2012, Dannon will donate a grant of $30,000 to one program nurturing healthy eating habits among children in each of the communities where a Dannon facility is located.

Applicant organizations must request funding for a current nutrition education program for children up to age 18, or be able to launch such an initiative by late 2012. Programs should be creative in their approach, involve community partners, include professional nutrition staff or consultants, and be designed to impact children's eating habits now and in the future.

To be eligible, programs must promote nutrition education to nurture healthy eating habits, including the consumption of low-fat yogurt, among children; serve communities where Dannon facilities are located (Auglaize, Darke, Mercer, or Shelby counties in Ohio; Salt Lake County in Utah; Tarrant County in Texas; or Westchester County, New York); and be an initiative of a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Complete program guidelines and the application form can be downloaded at the Dannon Web site.
