    • Carlos Meltzer & Recipe for Success on 13

    Posted on | November 14, 2008 | No Comments

    Channel 13 did *something* right this week: it featured the Recipe for Success Foundation, a non-profit organization whose mission is to combat childhood obesity and encourage long-term health by helping children understand, appreciate, and eat more healthful food.

    The piece shows Carlos Meltzer, Director of Media and Community Outreach, teaching children how to make healthy choices as they prepare dishes: http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/video?id=6501722

    From the Recipe4Success site – http://www.recipe4success.org:

    Our Program is focused on integrating nutrition vertically throughout curriculum and after school programs, and operates in selected H.I.S.D. elementary schools.

    We train parent-volunteers; connect them to a broad spectrum of community resources—including our Chefs in Schools series; and mentor a city-wide collaboration to affect change. We created a model that will soon be replicated in other schools and communities in Houston and across the country.

    Recipe for Success founder Gracie Cavnar was nominated as a National Woman of Worth: please vote for her at http://www.womenofworth.com/ and help Recipe for Success win $25,000 so it can continue its great work! Voting runs from November 10 to November 24, 2008.
