Our social venture is looking at creating a meal plan that promotes healthy living amongst our new generation. The purpose of this social venture is to promote better eating habits and encourage a healthier lifestyle among our high school students. We are hoping to create more awareness amongst schools, parents, and students themselves on the topic of social awareness and healthy living. A critical component of this social venture, is to use produce from the local market, to tap into the importance of supporting local economy and reducing the footprint of students' eating habits.

We will be focusing on a high school and learn about their meal plan. From there, we will introduced to them a modified food plan that is healthy and delicious. We would highlight the nutrition values and other benefits that comes with a healthy lifestyle, as well as the importance of understanding how our consuming habits can have a social, economic and evironmental impact in our community.

Nigel wants to remove this: [As well, we will partner with local farmers and producers; they will the exclusive produce supliers.]

and replace with a new paragraph, which follows. The purpose is that we need to focus on what it is that we will actually do, and my vision is outlined below.

Our organization will act as consultants and educators. By working with the current meal providers if possible, or suggesting new catering companies if the current providers are unwilling to make ingredient and recipe changes, we will help to shape a healthy and delicious meal program. In addition we will work with the school administration and teachers to teach the value of healthy, nutritious food to the students. Our employees will produce information for parents and students, plus act as guest lecturers in relevent classes such as social studies, physical education, and home economics.
