Make Healthy Choices Easier!
Ensure that food fundraisers meet the Smart Snack nutrition standards.
8
Must all Food Fundraisers Meet Smart Snack Standards?
There are no limits on the number of fundraisers that sell nonfood items.
There are no limits on food and beverage fundraisers held during the school day if such fundraisers include only foods and/or beverages that meet the Smart Snacks nutrition standards.
Fundraisers that occur after school hours (30 minutes after the end of the instructional day) may sell foods and beverages that do not meet the Smart Snacks nutrition standards.
9
State and Local Flexibility
The nutrition standards included in the interim final rule for all foods sold in school are minimum standards.
State agencies and school districts may establish additional standards.
State or local standards must be consistent with Federal standards.
10
Fundraiser Exemption
• School districts may institute additional standards.
• No exempt fundraiser foods or beverages may be sold in competition with school meals in the food service area during the meal service.
