Alaska State Profile: Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program Congress founded the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) in 2002 to expose low income elementary students to a wider variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. The program is overwhelmingly popular with schools, parents, and students – and extensive evaluation has shown that the program can reduce obesity rates and increase consumption both within the snack program and at school lunch. Today, 7,600 schools reaching four million students participate in FFVP! 2018-2019 School Year School District Schools Alaska Gateway School District 7 Anchorage School District 36 Annette Island School District 1 Bering Strait School District 15 Bristol Bay Borough School District 1 Chatham School District 1 Cordova City School District 1 Craig City School District 1 Dillingham City School District 1 Fairbanks North Star Borough School District 4 Haines Borough School District 1 Hoonah City School District 1 Iditarod Area School District 7 Juneau Borough School District 4 Kashunamiut School District 1 Kenai Peninsula Borough School District 13 Ketchikan Gateway Borough School District 4 Klawock City School District 1 Kodiak Island Borough School District 9 Kuspuk School District 7 Lake and Peninsula Borough School District 12 Lower Kuskokwim School District 29 Lower Yukon School District 10 Matanuska-Susitna Borough School District 13 Nenana City School District 1 North Slope Borough School District 7 Northwest Arctic Borough School District 11 Petersburg Borough School District 1 Saint Mary’s School District 1 Sitka School District 2 Southeast Island School District 7 Southwest Region School District 8 Yukon Flats School District 6 Yukon Koyukuk School District 10 Yupiit School District 3 .
