Meet our donors. They are our partners and give more than just money.
For the past five years, Imperial Brady has partnered with Wellness in the Schools to provide compostable plates, utensils, and other supplies for our WITS Labs, which are hands-on culinary and food education classes for students to prepare seasonal, simple, and affordable recipes that will be served in their cafeteria. In 2026, WITS reached 33,000 students nationwide through our food education programming and this school year, we’re excited to be providing WITS Labs in 20 New York City public schools.
Thanks to Imperial Brady’s generous in-kind support, every plate and utensil used during WITS Labs is provided at no cost, helping us reduce programming expenses and direct more resources toward reaching students. Their compostable materials further support our work educating students on sustainability through food and movement education. We’re grateful to have their continued support as we create engaging, meaningful food experiences for students across New York City.
