YNHHS is holding its sixth online #GiveHealthy food drive March 1 - 31 to coincide with National Nutrition Month.
Employees and medical staff are invited to visit https://www.ynhhs.org/givehealthy and support hunger-relief organizations in the communities YNHHS serves. The health system’s first five drives, plus a special drive last November, collected over 94,000 pounds of food.
#GiveHealthy provides an online platform for hunger-relief organizations to set up “registries” listing items they need so you can choose the items you wish to purchase.
This year, National Nutrition Month promotes healthy eating habits and encourages individuals to make informed food choices. Because the food donated through YNHHS’ #GiveHealthy drive will ship from suppliers directly to hunger-relief organizations, you will be able to purchase healthy food items, including fresh produce, to improve the health of our communities.
YNHHS’ drive was developed and organized through a collaboration among the Office of Health Equity and Community Impact, Community and Government Relations, Inclusion and Belonging, Human Resources, Marketing and Communications, Northeast Medical Group, and Food and Nutrition. For more information, visit YNHHS’ GiveHealthy site or contact Augusta Mueller, [email protected] or 203-688-3862.
