Why the Tray is the way!

The Build-A-Tray   Program is an effort to both respond to the increasing childhood
obesity epidemic and connect closely to First Lady Michelle Obama's recent "Let's Move" call to action. About 32% of children and adolescents today (25 million kids)
are obese or overweight, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Additional government data reveals that obesity costs our country roughly $147 billion
a year in weight-related medical bills. Part of the First Lady's Let's Move campaign (www.letsmove.gov), The Build-A-Tray   Program focuses specifically on the First Lady's state desire to provide more healthful meals in our nation's schools.

According to Federal statistics, many of our nation's schools are still challenged
with the daily mandate of successfully implementing the Offer Versus Serve (OVS)
program - a positive nutritional guideline that seeks to ensure our children eat well
and eat right for at least one meal a day.

The Build-A-Tray   Program was created by Food Service Directors and Nutritionists.
The standard school serving tray, was transformed by national recognized School
Food court designer, Tacey Trebino, into the federally-compliant, color-coded program.
The shapes and numbers help students to place the appropriate foods in the right
spot on the new tray

After extensive field trials of The Build-A-Tray    Program in major school districts
it has been revealed that this colorful and compelling "eat right" program is affordable
to implement, easy to maintain and a real hit among students

Discover The OVS  Compliant Solution... In One Tray!

The simple beauty of the tray is that it virtually
ensures OVS* and NSLP* compliance and
alleviates both extra efforts by often
over-worked food service staff
while increasing revenue.
Also, The Build-a-Tray   Program is in tandem with
OVS Program  and MYPYRAMID.gov program,
in progress in schools across America.

The Build-A-Tray    Program
becomes the perfect compliment
to national fitness & wellness programs.
