“Super” Champions Unite to Fuel Bay Area Students for Success!
GENYOUth, San Francisco Unified School District, Bay Area Host Committee, the 49ers Foundation, and Purpose-Driven Partners Launch “Super Schools” to Strengthen Nutrition Security and Physical Activity, Helping Bay Area Students Thrive — School Grant Applications Now Open!
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — GENYOUth, the national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping schoolchildren thrive by living well-nourished and physically active lives, today announced the launch of Super Schools. To celebrate the upcoming Super Bowl LX, this community-based initiative will provide nutrition equipment grants and NFL FLAG-In-School kits to 60 Bay Area schools in under-resourced communities to enhance opportunities for nutrition security and physical activity among students. In collaboration with San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD); the Bay Area Host Committee; Dairy Council of California; and purpose-minded corporate sponsors including Amazon Access, Domino’s, the NFL Foundation, PepsiCo, and the PepsiCo Foundation, Super Schools will help increase access to 9.0 million school meals annually and expand opportunities for daily physical activity, benefitting over 33,000 students throughout the Bay Area.
Super Schools kicked off today at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Academic Middle School in San Francisco with a celebratory event featuring special appearances by San Francisco 49ers DE (1990-96) Dennis Brown, and local community officials. With energized students in attendance, the assembly ignited excitement with a ribbon-cutting ceremony for new school meal equipment proven to positively impact participation including Grab-and-Go mobile meal carts, insulated milk coolers, and a point-of-sale (POS) system based on a school’s needs. Students then participated in an NFL FLAG-In-School Kit unboxing and flag football clinic where officials from the San Francisco 49ers coached participants on the field while highlighting the critical connection between proper nutrition and physical activity in supporting student success.
Super Schools provides a comprehensive package of essential equipment and resources designed to transform students’ access to healthy foods and build enjoyment through physical activity. The initiative fosters student nourishment by overcoming barriers including time and stigma, delivering meals directly to where students are – whether in hallways, classrooms, or cafeterias – so they can easily access the nutritious meals they need to thrive. The NFL FLAG-In-School kit provides students with fun, inclusive opportunities to stay active through flag football while supporting a lifelong love for staying active.
“One in five children in the Bay Area lives in poverty¹, and more than three-quarters of school-aged kids across the country aren’t getting the daily physical activity their growing bodies and minds need². These aren’t just statistics — they represent real children falling behind every single day. We cannot wait. School nutrition and physical activity programs are lifelines — vital to helping students grow, learn, and thrive,” said Ann Marie Krautheim, M.A., R.D., L.D., CEO of GENYOUth. “We are deeply grateful to our purpose-driven partners, whose support is helping us create a culture of wellness in schools. Together, we’re ensuring every child has the nourishment, movement, and opportunity they need to reach their full potential.”
“We’re thrilled to launch the Super Schools program in our district. Community collaboration removes barriers and ensures that our students get access to proper nutrition and physical activity – critical for their health, focus, and academic success,” said San Francisco Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Maria Su. “We are grateful to GENYOUth and other mission-driven supporters for their ongoing dedication to our students’ wellness and development.”
“Super Schools is a crucial part of the Bay Area Host Committee’s goal of driving lasting social and economic impact across our local communities,” said Patty Hubbard, Chief Marketing Officer, Bay Area Host Committee. “With the support of organizations who share our passion to make a tangible difference in the health and wellness of children, we are proud to collaborate with GENYOUth to tackle food insecurity and physical inactivity and deliver the equipment and resources Bay Area schools need to help their students thrive in and out of the classroom.”
“At Amazon Access, we believe everyone should have access to healthy food – regardless of their zip code,” said Nancy Dalton, Director, Amazon Access. “Organizations like GENYOUth play a critical role in empowering the next generation to succeed. We’re proud to collaborate with GENYOUth to support quality school meal programs for students throughout the Bay Area.”
“We understand as a restaurant business that food has transformative power – when students face hunger, it becomes a barrier to reaching their full academic potential. This understanding drives our dedication to promoting student nutrition and well-being through our Domino’s Smart Slice Pizza program, which delivers both taste and nutritional value to school cafeterias nationwide,” said Joe Jordan, Chief Operating Officer and President – Domino’s U.S. “Domino’s has been a committed partner with GENYOUth from day one. Our support of Super Schools is a critical part of Domino’s community engagement efforts, helping us tackle food insecurity challenges within the neighborhoods we serve.”
“The PepsiCo Foundation seeks to ensure that every child in our communities knows where their next meal is coming from,” said C.D. Glin, President of the PepsiCo Foundation and Global Head of Social Impact at PepsiCo. “Access to nutritious food is essential in addressing childhood hunger. It fuels physical health, supports cognitive development, and enables academic success. By working with trusted partners like GENYOUth and local communities, we are focused on creating more equitable access to the nutritious meals children need today while helping to build a healthier, more sustainable future.”
“As a former professional football player and someone who has spent much of his career around athletics, I see first-hand the critical role school nutrition and physical activity plays in the lives of students. Our physical, mental, and emotional well-being are so intertwined. By helping ensure students have access to school meals and physical activity programs, we can empower them to be their best selves,” said Dennis Brown, San Francisco 49ers DE (1990-96).
“The 49ers Foundation and NFL FLAG-In-School’s commitment is to make physical activity inclusive, enjoyable, and accessible to all. I am honored to be here with GENYOUth and supporters helping create more opportunities for students to be more active and discover the fun and confidence that comes from play,” echoed Justin Prettyman, Vice President, Philanthropy & Executive Director, 49ers Foundation.
“Dairy Council of California is proud to collaborate with GENYOUth to expand access to nutritious meals and physical activity in Bay Area schools. Dairy plays a vital role in school meals, delivering essential nutrients that support children’s growth and learning,” said Amy DeLisio, CEO, Dairy Council of CA.
Applications are now open for schools to apply for Super Schools grants at https://funds.genyouthnow.org/. Grants will be awarded in the coming months, leading up to Super Bowl LX and its premier purpose-driven culinary event, Taste of the NFL presented by PepsiCo and the PepsiCo Foundation, on Saturday, February 7, 2025, of which GENYOUth is the charitable partner. In GENYOUth’s commitment to end student hunger, net proceeds raised from the Taste of the NFL will benefit schools in the Bay Area and throughout the nation. The collective impact of the 2024 Taste of the NFL event held in New Orleans generated $2.2 million in revenue, which benefited approximately 1,000 schools and 540,000 students by increasing access to 146 million school meals in all 32 NFL club markets.
