GSNA 2025-2026 President - April Cox

GSNA Legacy Builders,

Welcome to Our 75th Diamond Anniversary Year!

It is my absolute honor and privilege to serve as President of the Georgia School Nutrition Association for 2025–2026. This year we proudly celebrate our 75th diamond anniversary, a testament to the strength, passion, and perseverance of every person who has helped build this association over the decades.

Our theme for the year, “A Modern Legacy,” reminds us that legacy isn’t just about the past, but serves as a bridge between generations. It connects who the past, the present and the future. This year, we will pay tribute to the visionaries who came before us. Their stories, their struggles, and their dreams are the foundation upon which we continue to build. Now, it’s our time to carry the torch forward. Let’s build boldly and with purpose!
If you're new to school nutrition—welcome! You are the future of this great association, and we are thrilled you are here. If you’re seasoned, thank you for your continued leadership. I want to encourage you to reach out and uplift someone new. Share your wisdom and invite them in. Together, let’s keep the spirit of GSNA strong.

Legacy is not built by one person or one moment. It is built through consistent daily service, authentic leadership and care for others, a relentless drive to innovate and improve meaningful connections, and strong collaboration with our industry partners. This year let’s grow our membership and empower one another. Let’s advocate fiercely for the well-being of children and the needs of our amazing staff members. Let’s learn, teach, share, and collaborate more than ever before. Let’s rise to the challenge of shaping a modern legacy that inspires those who will come after us. We have so much tradition behind us and so much possibility ahead of us.

My heart is grateful for each of you, and I am filled with unwavering hope for all we will accomplish together. Prepare to shine brightly and wear your sparkle proudly! Let’s make our diamond year truly unforgettable!
