Our Mission
To educate, inform and demonstrate healthy eating habits and nutrition in school aged children through artistic and cooking expressions.
Spread the Whiz welcomes all community members to help bring our dream to fruition. We appreciate volunteers with special talents such as artists, gardeners, and chefs who can lend a hand. We are also always looking for extra hands to help run events.
“Educating our youth about better food choices is a way to invest in their future. Through the foundation hopefully we can make not only children but parents aware of better choices for foods.”
—Frankie Olivieri, President and Founder of Spread the Whiz Foundation
