Michelle O. Color Blocks While Promoting Healthy Eating in California
First lady Michelle Obama speaks with Los Angeles City Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa (R) and Inglewood Mayor James Butts (L) looking on at the future site of Northgate Market to discuss the California FreshWorks Fund on February 1, 2012 in Inglewood, California. The $264 million public-private fund plans to bring healthy food stores to under-served communities and create or retain up to six thousand jobs. The fund has committed $20 million in financing to Northgate for the first three projects, which are in South Los Angeles, Inglewood and the City Heights portion of San Diego. The first lady will end her two-day visit with a television appearance to promote her fight against childhood obesity and a fundraiser for her husband U.S. President Barack Obama.
