Answer:

Answer in explanation.

Explanation:

I think that celebrities bother to involve themselves in politics to try and make a statement or gain more fame and followers. Oftentimes, you see celebrities speaking on world events such as the BLM act, global warming, wildfires, or the pandemic that is still ablaze. As we all know, all politicians have their strong opinions but the points do not always get across when just the politicians talk about it. Sometimes, celebrities feel the need to speak on a topic that may be popular in the world of politics just to shine a light on it or even to get more attention. In conclusion, I feel that celebrities try to worm their way into politics because I believe that they think that it will make an impact.

A grant seeker is considering a project that involves providing more low-calorie, fiber-rich foods to low-income families. What

BigorU [14]

Answer:

C) a local school district

Explanation:

Many school districts already carry out similar policies through Local School Wellness Policy programs. Malnutrition negatively affects kids the most and that is why school districts are currently trying to fight it. Malnutrition is not simply not eating enough food, it means not eating nutritious food at the right amounts. Obese children can suffer from malnutrition, while a slender kid can have a proper and balanced nutrition.

So if someone is seeking for a grant to fight malnutrition, they should go to their local authorities first and get in touch with the school district.
