2012 Kashi Grant Winners

In April 2012, 29 Junior Leagues across the U.S. received cash awards from Kashi, the premier natural food and lifestyle company, to support the Junior Leagues’ Kids in the Kitchen program. Now in its seventh year, Junior Leagues’ Kids in the Kitchen is one of the most successful volunteer-driven programs addressing childhood obesity and nutrition with more than 200 individual Leagues participating in the effort.

AJLI President Delly Beekman said, “We’re honored that Kashi has recognized the great work Junior Leagues do every day in their communities as well as the success of our Kids in the Kitchen program, one of the first community-based approaches to fighting childhood obesity. These 29 Leagues will use their awards to sustain and expand their KITK activities and, in doing so, honor the great work that Kashi is doing to support organizations like AJLI that are working to keep ‘real food’ in the minds and hands of communities throughout the country.”
