As the 2010 Ted Prize winner, Jamie Oliver was given a chance to make one wish that would change the world and to do it in front of an audience that was eager to make his wish come true.  

His wish announced on February 10, 2010 was to teach every child about food in order to confront the health issues that plague our communities - childhood obesity, diabetes, etc. and set a course for a healthy future.

Local Matters has been working to do our part to make this shared vision a reality in Central Ohio through our Local Food to School program.  If you'd like to help us in our efforts to make healthy food education a priority in our schools, please make a donation today to support our programs or consider becoming a classroom volunteer.

Watch Jamie Oliver's TED Talk for some important words about the health of our children.
