HSFS: Helping Schools Implement Plant-Based Wellness - Nelson Campbell |
|
Nelson Campbell founded PlantPure, Inc. and its nonprofit arm, PlantPure Communities, to lead a grassroots movement to promote the health benefits of plant-based nutrition.Prior to founding the PlantPure organization, Nelson graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelors Degree in Political Science, and a Masters Degree in Economics, and then worked for 25 years as a socially conscious business entrepreneur.He also is the Executive Producer, Director and Co-Writer of the documentary film PlantPure Nation. This film examines the political and economic factors that suppress information about the benefits of plant-based nutrition, and makes connections to public policy, medical practice, food deserts, and farming.
Brought to you by the Coalition for Healthy School Food and PlantPure, our main goal for the Healthy School Food Summit (HSFS) is to educate school administrators, teachers, parents, food service workers, legislators and others on ways they can add more healthy food options in their schools to help students grow and excel while also motivating and inspiring them to also eat better at home. We've invited top experts in nutrition and program development to provide their insights through interviews with co-hosts Amie Hamlin, of the Coalition for Healthy School Food, and Ron Gandiza, of PlantPure.
