Science Fair Awards
The Foundation issues certificates along with all expense-related awards to elementary and secondary students who are conducting school-based or 4-H projects aimed at helping people make healthier food choices and develop healthier eating habits. These awards are typically in the range of $25–75 and tend to be related to a science fair or to a nutrition-related school project in either the United States or in Canada. The priority is on creative, novel ideas. Students who are from small public schools or from rural areas are especially encouraged to apply. Applications are evaluated on a continuous basis.

Famous quotes containing the words science and/or fair:
“He is not a true man of science who does not bring some sympathy to his studies, and expect to learn something by behavior as well as by application. It is childish to rest in the discovery of mere coincidences, or of partial and extraneous laws. The study of geometry is a petty and idle exercise of the mind, if it is applied to no larger system than the starry one.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I loved. And a man will guard when he loves.
Their white-gowned democracy was my fair lady.
With her knife lying cold, straight, in the softness of her sweet-flowing sleeve.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
