Mothers Day Event!
Monica and Iris, our dedicated volunteers at Our Food for Health Pantry, recognized the importance of Mother's Day and went the extra mile to create an exceptional experience for families in need of food assistance.
Their profound understanding of a mother's love and the significance of access to nourishing meals motivated them to bring joy to the faces of mothers. In addition to providing fresh vegetables, fruits, and produce, our shoppers had the opportunity to gather other essentials for their Mother's Day celebrations.
Food for Health: An Overview
Eating a healthy and balanced diet is important for maintaining overall good health. A healthy diet includes a variety of different types of food from all the food groups, in the right amounts. It is important to choose foods that are rich in nutrients, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, and to limit foods that are high in added sugars, saturated and trans fats, and sodium. By paying attention to what we eat and drink, we can support our bodies and minds, and improve our overall well-being.
