What is Fuel Up to Play 60?

Fuel Up to Play 60, the nation's largest in-school nutrition and physical activity program, works in 73,000 schools nationwide to increase physical activity, healthy eating habits and access to nutritious foods through student, teacher and parent involvement. The program is a partnership between the National Dairy Council (NDC) and National Football League (NFL), in collaboration with the USDA and is administered in the Southeast by The Dairy Alliance.

Fuel Up to Play 60 helps students make positive changes in their schools by improving opportunities to consume nutrient-rich foods and get at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day. The ultimate goal is to ensure sustainable, positive changes at schools that complement an academic environment. Families, communities and local governments all have a role in helping today's children learn about the importance of proper nutrition and physical activity
