About

The Chef Ann Foundation (CAF) is dedicated to promoting whole-ingredient, scratch cooking in schools. Scratch cooking enables schools to serve the healthiest, tastiest meals so that kids are well-nourished and ready to learn. 

Their mission is to ensure that school food professionals have the resources, funding and support they need to provide fresh, healthy, delicious, cook from scratch meals that support the health of children and our planet. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, CAF works with both public and private schools in all 50 states. Founded in 2009 by Chef Ann Cooper, they've helped more than 13,500 schools and 3.3 million kids eat healthier, fresher school meals.
