Mission Statement

We nourish the bodies, minds, and hearts of those facing cancer through the power of healthy meals and nutrition education.

Description

The Heimerdinger Foundation provides and delivers organic, nutrient-dense meals and nutrition education free of charge to people facing cancer through its signature Meals 4 Health and Healing program. Every week, we serve approximately 800 nutrient-dense servings to nearly 100 cancer patients and their caregivers so that those going through cancer treatment can focus on healing. Our meals, based on a plant-forward menu, are immune boosting and anti-inflammatory. Our clients share with us that this gift of food is a critical source to their healing and that the nutrition education we provide inspires a transformational journey in how they learn to nourish themselves. Food is medicine and is a source of comfort and connection as well.
