Current Request for Proposal for Contractual Services
- The State of Nebraska, Department of Education (NDE), is is issuing this Request for Proposal (RFP) – Nebraska Thursdays Campaign, for the purpose of selecting a qualified Contractor to provide a marketing campaign for Nebraska Thursdays and increase school sign-ups of the program. Nebraska Thursdays is a statewide program that assists schools in planning, serving and promoting a Nebraska-sourced meal in the cafeteria on the first Thursday of each month. Essential to program success is marketing that emphasizes benefits to participation in farm to school. This includes highlighting current access and seasonality of Nebraska/local products, as well as the health and economic benefits of sourcing local foods for kids, community and agriculture; additionally, there are model schools that successfully implement Nebraska Thursdays and those stories are valuable to share. NT Marketing Campaign RFP.
Proposals are due August 16, 2019 by 2pm Central Time. Please review the RFP for full details. Questions should be submitted in writing to sarah.e.smith@nebaska.gov, NDE Local Foods Consultant.
