💛 DAY 8 - FOOD SOVEREIGNTY: Fueling Health 💛

Yesterday we protected confidence at the tap with Clean Water. Today, on Day 8 of AVFCA’s 12 Days of Giving, we turn our focus to the everyday choices that sustain us: Food Sovereignty.

What families eat shapes long-term health, and AVFCA has championed transparency, clean ingredients, and the removal of harmful additives from school meals. We’ve supported legislation limiting artificial dyes and ultra-processed ingredients while empowering families to make whole-food choices and even grow their own food. Nourishing the body is an act of sovereignty, and AVFCA works to ensure every family can access healthier, more informed food options.

🌟 As a Reminder of What to Expect
From December 1–12, as one of our supporters, you will receive a daily themed email including:
✔ A featured silent auction item:  https://givebutter.com/c/AVFC2025WinterAuction/auction 
✔ A donor bonus for the first 25 donors each day:  https://avoiceforchoiceadvocacy.org/donate/
This is more than a fundraiser; it’s a celebration of what this community has built together and an investment in the critical work ahead.
