What People Have to Say

Maine Dairy and Nutrition Council works with schools across the state, offering grants each year for needed school nutrition equipment.

Ellen Dore, RSU 16

The staff loves them (the red coolers) because they are just the right size for milk, pack out field trips and they keep everything cold.  Kids at the summer camp help to unload the van and it's a competition as to who can carry the red bag by themselves without needing help (Milk helps to grow muscles twice-once to carry it and twice drinking it!) Once again, the red cooler bags helped to make the summer a success!!!

The smoothie machine prompted creativity from our kitchen staff, and the students now appreciate the variety in their breakfasts. Support like this helps small rural schools offer diverse menu options.

Perley Martin, RSU 71

Thank you so much for your continued partnership to make our program better.

Tammy Connors, RSU 74

All of the RSU #74 schools have been fortunate to receive generous support, encouragement and funding from the Maine Dairy & Nutrition Council.  Most recently, our High School received a needed Milk Barrel in the fitting Cow Pattern to go along with our farming communities.  Our 3 elementary schools have held many friendly competitions to raise awareness of the importance of healthy habits & drinking vitamin rich milk.  The support we have received over the years is invaluable and provides not only the financial support but resources and knowledge to help us all, in the classrooms and kitchens, to educate students on the importance of making life-long healthy choices.

They (red insulated coolers) were essential in serving our community during the summer months, allowing our program to focus on meal quality without worrying about limited cooler space.

The addition of the yogurt bar to our breakfast has given the students participating more choices which I believe has helped us to keep our numbers where they are at now. We are so appreciative of this grant and all it has helped us to accomplish.
