Brighter Bites

Dear Staff at Cherokee Lane,


CONGRATS on completing another successful year of programming with Brighter Bites!

It is an honor and privilege to build a community of health within your school community.

We are grateful for the moments we have share together, the passion this community has for our program, 

and the incredible people we meet along the way. 

Through your support, hard work, and passion, we are able to successfully touch the lives 

of so many students and their families and make a lasting impact on their health.


Here is a snapshot of what we accomplished together this year, along with all of our schools.
