10 Cents a Meal for Michigan’s Kids and Farms (10 Cents a Meal) is administered by the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) and matches what participating schools and other non-school sponsors spend on Michigan-grown fruits, vegetables, and dry beans. Each year, the MSU Center for Regional Food Systems evaluates the impact of this matching grant program. This Executive Summary is part of the 10 Cents a Meal 2022–2023 Evaluation Results: Sustaining Momentum for Michigan’s Future. 

The 2022–2023 program marked the largest amount of funds awarded to grantees to date for the 10 Cents a Meal program. Through this program, MDE awarded more than $5.6 million in grant funds to 240 grantees in 65 Michigan counties. 

 

The findings from the 2022-2023 Evaluation report are also available to review in this ArcGIS StoryMap: bit.ly/10CentsStoryMap. In addition to key report findings, they also include a Grantee Data Dashboard and specially curated ArcGIS maps by the Michigan Department of Education. For additional insight into the impact of 10 Cents a Meal at childcare centers, A Quick Glance at the 2022-2023 Family Day Care Pilot is also available. 

This evaluation work was conducted with support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and 10 Cents administrative funds for organizational partners.
