The Good Food Project

During the Food Bank’s recent Hunger Study, we discovered that 70% of families we feed have a household member suffering from high blood pressure and 37% have a household member with diabetes.  We wanted to immediately address these alarming health disparities so we reached out to dietitians to help us design menus and create recipes that will help the people we serve lower blood pressure and prevent other diet-related diseases.

Now we specifically make food purchases based on these menu designs.

Our Good Food Project not only feeds people at risk of hunger but educates them about healthy, low-cost eating choices. We provide our partner feeding programs with the educational materials and foods that correspond to these specialized weekly menus.

We are so excited to offer healthy food AND educational materials based on sound nutrition!
