“Have you ever been somewhere where your food choices were confined to starchy, fatty or sugary foods, when what you really want is a piece of fruit or something healthy?” asked Dehart. “That’s the problem I’m trying to solve. I would love for people – especially kids – to have healthy choices.”

Dehart, the mother of two young children, plans to use the $10,000 prize money to purchase vending machines and locate them in middle and high schools in the Salt Lake City area. She will begin by contacting several organic wholesalers.

Way to go, Elizabeth, and here’s wishing you success in your venture! I hope we see your vending machines spread not only to schools but all over the nation!
