Summary: A mother in Seattle is encouraging public schools to eradicate meat from the lunch menu every Monday. "Meatless Mondays" is an actual movement supported by the Humane League.

Relevance: Organizers of the movement believe that cutting meat out once a week can help to reduce obesity and chronic diseases. We can research whether or not this method is effective, which will help us to determine if "Meatless Mondays" is a movement in which our non-profit should support and team up with.
