Del Monte Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Giveaway- 3 Winners

This year I have been opening my families eyes to fruits and vegetables that we have not tried before and not only are we finding that we are loving them it definitely is making us choose healthier for mealtimes.  It is no easy task though as there is always so much temptation out there.  However, I feel if adults lead by example and practice what we preach not only will our children eat better but society as a whole.


Del Monte Fresh Produce is doing just that with their |Teacher Monday: Cash for Classrooms" online contest.  Their goal is to get school children across North America to eat healthier.  Truly could there be anything better out there then a contest that benefits our children and their schools.

"Teacher Monday: Cash for Classrooms" encourages kindergarten thru 12th grade school teachers to incorporate healthy eating and living messages into classroom activities. Sixty teachers will win a total of $1,000 in cash to purchase school supplies and fresh fruit for their students. Several winners will also get a Del Monte Fresh® Field Day event for their school in which the entire student body will enjoy a day of Del Monte fresh fruit, games and fun activities.

To be eligible to win, teachers must register online, submit a short essay on how they will incorporate healthy eating and living messages into their lesson plans, then encourage all their fans to vote for them online. Ten winners will be selected each Monday for six consecutive weeks beginning October 3, 2011. Winners are based solely on the number of votes they receive. Winning teachers will receive $750 in cash to purchase school supplies and $250 in Del Monte® fresh fruit coupons for classroom fresh snacks and to use in fruit educational activities.

Winning North American schools will also be linked with schools in countries where Del Monte grows its fruit to help further the education of students by introducing them to another culture. Global schools will also receive $1,000 each for school supplies and improvements.
