Kids Cook! Develops WebApp to Promote Healthy Lifestyle

The Monthly meeting of the Interfaith Hunger Coalition on Tuesday, January 29, will feature a presentation from Kids Cook! and the healthy lifestyle WebAPP Fūdrr that the organization has created with  the support of the Presbyterian Center for Community Health.

Join us at First Presbyterian Church, I-25 and Martin Luther King, 12:00 Noon, on Tuesday, January 29, to learn more about how this new  n-line community resource is helping promote increased access to fresh produce for families in need.    

Leora Jaeger-Seigel and Mary Meyer will tell us how the WebApp works for schools and school children and for families in the Albuquerque area.

Fūdrr users--individuals and families--earn points/pennies that are redeemable for produce at local retailers, or can be donated to a low-income school, food pantry, or social service agency. The new version of this bilingual WebApp is planned for launch soon.  Check Out the  Fūdrr Facebook page
and Twitter account.  And here is the Kids Cook! Facebook page.

Users earn points when they:
  • Respond to fūdrr active living and healthy eating challenges and quizzes.
  • Post videos and photos of their healthy eating and active living experiences.
  • Learn about the benefits of healthy eating, active living, and dollar wise food choices.
  • Engage with friends, family members or health care providers on fūdrr.
