Inspired by a personal experience, the Center for Food Equity in Medicine was founded to address the urgent nutritional needs of individuals battling chronic health conditions. Established in 2020, it evolved from the Feed1st pantry, which began in 2017 after Ann Jackson witnessed the struggles of a cancer patient unable to afford food during treatment.
Since its inception, over 133,130 pounds of food have been distributed, serving 2,447 households and 8,709 individuals, ensuring that those navigating cancer and other life-altering conditions do not go hungry.
Your generous contributions provide nutritionally dense foods to vulnerable neighbors, ensuring that individuals and families facing food insecurity due to health conditions receive the support they need.
Join the fight against food insecurity by donating cryptocurrency or cash. Your support can transform lives and ensure that no one has to choose between health and hunger. Every contribution counts!
