Our Services
Mindful Meals focuses on three core programs that shape our initiative:
Food Policy & Advocacy
Food policies are the decision-making factors that shape the nutritious values and food that we consume in our everyday lives. With this, Mindful Meals believes it is crucial to advocate and speak up for change and show support towards policies that are positively impacting families and individuals.
Our goal is to create and participate in social media campaigns and advocacy programs hosted by other organizations to spread the word and raise awareness of various policies and regulations revolving around food.
Food Donations
The majority of food donations consist of canned goods that are ultra-processed and long-lasting on the shelves. Though these are great resources to support those in need, it is essential to provide families with foods that are healthy and include less harmful and unnecessary ingredients.
We hope to collect donations from farmers markets, farms, businesses, restaurants, and local centers to provide healthy and fresh resources to those in need.
Education Programs
Teaching the younger generation is one of, if not the most important ways to spread awareness and knowledge of the different kinds of foods that are put on our plates every day. Knowledge acts as a source of power when helping others and speaking up for the nutritious support that every individual deserves.
Providing schools and learning centers with information and knowledge about various nutrition lessons and donating educational materials like books and learning kits is how Mindful Meals hopes to integrate education programs.
