VENTURA, Calif. - Californer -- Gill's Onions will match all donations up to $15,000 for every dollar donated to Students for Eco-Education and Agriculture (SEEAG) through the end of May as part of SEEAG's 5th Annual Double Your Impact Challenge.
"SEEAG's mission is to build awareness and appreciation among grade schoolers for agriculture and the importance of eating healthy. Through Gill's Onions' generosity and all those who donate during May, SEEAG will receive as much as $30,000 to support our Farm-to-Food Lab program," says Mary Maranville, SEEAG's founder and CEO. "The program combines classroom learning with farm field trips where students learn about the origins of their food."
The Farm-to-Food Lab program is held throughout the school year in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties and is provided at no charge to students, teachers and schools. "SEEAG relies on donations to keep the program free and to continue to enhance the learning experience," says Maranville.
