Editor's take

Current Newman's Own Foundation focus areas: childhood illness, school food, and Indigenous food justice. Veteran-specific funding now runs through the Newman's Own Awards program in partnership with Fisher House Foundation, not through the foundation directly. Check newmansown.org for the current Awards cycle. Correct URL is newmansown.org.
