A 501(C)(3) NONPROFIT

Doctor Vegetable

Doctor Vegetable is a 501(C)(3) Non-profit Organization founded by two passionate physicians committed to transforming the health and well-being of children. With a mission to empower the younger generation to make healthier choices, we focus on promoting the use of vegetables in schools to pave the way for a vibrant and robust future.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is simple yet profound – to encourage children to choose carrots over candy bars (most of the time) and to make vegetables cool again. We understand the challenges in instilling healthy habits at a young age, and we are committed to providing the tools and support needed for children to take ownership of their health journey from the very beginning.

Making Vegetables the Superheroes, Candy the Sidekicks!

Our Goals

  • Make Vegetables Cool Again

  • Encourage children to choose carrots over candy bars (most of the time)

  • Create fun and entertaining content to reinforce important health and nutrition concepts

  • Roll out the Heart Healthy Fundraiser as a healthy “Box Tops” alternative in schools nationwide

About the Founders

Renée and John met in medical school, and currently practice medicine in Northern California. In their infinite free time they like to randomly start 501(c)(3) organizations and walk around foliage wearing black scrubs.

Hey - there should be a healthy version of the Box Tops program.
