At Sprouts, we know that building healthy communities starts with access to health, nutrition, and wellness, and our team members play an important role in bringing that mission to life.
This January, the Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation is inviting Team Members to nominate local schools or nonprofits in their community to receive a $2,000 “Healthy Seeds” donation!
Healthy Seeds donations are awarded to support children’s nutrition education programs or efforts to help address nutrition security for kids.

2026 Healthy Seeds Nomination Form
The deadline for submitting a nomination is January 23. Selected organizations will be invited to receive their donation on March 7 during an in-store check presentation, along with the nominating Team Member.
Healthy Seeds grants are funded, in part, by round up donations collected at the register. These donations are invested locally in the community where they are raised, supporting children’s nutrition education programs, including edible garden education, cooking programs, and more.
Making a Difference in the Community:
Austin Anderson, Store #659 – Coconut Creek, FL
Last year, Austin Anderson, Store Manager of Store #659 – Coconut Creek, FL location, nominated a local school in his community.
The school received a $2,000 Healthy Seeds Grant to build a school garden, creating a hands-on learning space for students to plant and harvest fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
“When I started with Sprouts six years ago, I remember learning about how involved the Foundation was in local communities,” Austin shared. “Being able to give back to a school right here in Coconut Creek’s backyard is especially meaningful to me.”
For Austin, the nomination was about creating a lasting impact.
“I wanted to support something with direct impact — something people could experience, and that could make its way back into the store,” he said. “Parents are proud of the garden, and students come home excited to talk about what they planted and grew. Seeing that connection come full circle has been amazing.”
