“CookShop’s lessons have students readily eating vegetables in our cafeteria that my nutritionist and our parents have told me they were not eating before.

CookShop is an essential weapon in our healthy living– healthy eating fight to change the obesity rates in our school and in our neighborhood.”

—C.S. 21 Principal Harold Anderson

Awareness Raising

All it takes is a click.

"What's Your Excuse?" That's what Stanley Tucci, Jimmy Fallon, Helena Christensen, Thom Filicia and Fab 5 Freddy want to know in the Food Bank's new public service announcement (PSA). This PSA was created and produced by Stefan Forbes, of InterPositive Media.

In America today there's a widening divide between rich and poor. Poverty causes hunger...hunger causes poverty. Can we break this cycle?

Watch the Food Bank's "Widening Divide" public service announcement featuring The Edge, Charlize Theron, Mike Myers, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard. This PSA was created and produced by Stefan Forbes of InterPositive Media.

View or listen to the Food Bank's PSA featuring "Sex in the City" star Sarah Jessica Parker.
