Spring into Wellness Challenge!

Donation Goal: $20,000

The dual purpose of the Spring into Wellness Challenge is 1) to encourage our community to more healthy outdoor activity and exercise and 2) to raise funds for healthy food in our schools.  All donations to the 2021 Spring into Wellness Challenge will support the garden and kitchen programs in our Jefferson County Schools as well as at Emburis Pre & Primary School - our sister school in Monduli, Tanzania.  You can read more about CWP and Emburis on this site. 

The Community Wellness Project (CWP) began in 2007 to address health and nutrition issues in Jefferson County schools. Our initial target area was the Chimacum School District and our work has included creating and maintaining school gardens, helping food service procure local organic food and equipment needed to process that food, and working with educators to enhance the curriculum with agriculture, nutrition, and culinary programs.  Since then our mission has expanded and we are now looking to support all of our Jefferson County school districts.  We encourage you to read more about the organization at jccwp.org and to get involved with us!
