Public Service Announcement – The Food Trust

This Public Service Announcement discusses the importance of the non-profit ‘The Food Trust’ in relation to my website about healthy eating at Rutgers University. The Food Trust works nationally to improve the health of families and communities through nutrition education, improving school food environments, farmers markets, healthier food options in corner stores, new and expanded supermarkets, and healthy food marketing and campaigns. These functions tie to my website because a lot of students don’t know what it means to eat healthy. The goal of this website is to keep students organized and to educate them about the healthy food that Rutgers University has to offer. They can do this by meal prepping before going to the dining hall, or they can meal prep in their off campus housing. This non-profit teaches young people how to eat healthy to fuel their body. A lot of people eat unhealthy in college because the unhealthy food options are limitless and so easily accessible.

I hope when people see my website, they feel inspired to start eating healthy and making healthier choices in their life. I think it is so hard, especially when in college, to eat healthy, and I don’t want students to feel like they have no choice but to eat unhealthy food. Eating healthy will make students feel more confident, it will help them to feel stronger, it could make them feel more motivated to do better in their classes, etc. I hope students take the time to visit this non-profits website, so they can see all it has to offer for them. It provides a lot of great tips for people to eat healthier and it gives a lot of healthier alternatives for people to eat or use instead of unhealthy foods. It will assist students when going to the dining hall, or if they are meal prepping in their off campus house.
