Help us help others learn about the power of food in disease prevention and reversal. 

We are bringing community-level exposure to whole food, plant-based nutrition, to change the conversation about health and wellness in partnership with wellness centers, faith-based communities, schools, social service agencies, and more.

As a volunteer-centric organization, we can do so much with little, but we need to give our volunteers the support they need to be successful -- and we have ambitions to grow! 

The first funds we raise cover our basic expenses of running a new, growing organization that is in high demand. Our operational expenses include administrative staff, technology, printing, and event costs.

As we grow, our goals are to:
  • Build a strong team of program staff and volunteer leaders across the metro area who run educational and supportive programming.
  • Create transformational health partnerships with leaders of community-based organizations, local government, and businesses, as well as clinicians.
  • Run more intensive programming like jumpstarts and health empowerment series for people of all backgrounds and ages, and in many languages.
  • Launch marketing and public relations campaigns that build awareness and momentum about overcoming chronic illness with food.
  • Be ready for opportunities that come knocking!

Doors are opening. Based on our experience in our initial months of operation, the New York metro area is ready for our message. Your generosity will allow us to take advantage of this moment of readiness, to spark and sustain community transformation through evidence-based nutrition.
