Care Resource is expanding its transgender outreach as well as the reach of the Food for Life Food pantry
Care Resource proudly announced a $10,000 grant from the Naderkhani Family Foundation to support its “Food for Life Food Pantry”, an essential program dedicated to combating food insecurity in South Florida. This funding will help expand the pantry’s services, enabling it to provide nutritious meals and vital resources to even more individuals and families in need.
“The Naderkhani Family Foundation’s generosity empowers us to address food insecurity, a critical component of our holistic approach to healthcare,” said Rafael Jimenez, Director of Social Services at Care Resource.
Food for Life Pantry and Care Resource
The Food for Life Food Pantry provides culturally diverse, fresh, and healthy staples for those experiencing food insecurity. This initiative directly impacts the community by promoting better health outcomes through nutrition, a key social determinant of health. This grant represents the Naderkhani Family Foundation’s dedication to building resilient communities and ensuring that no one in South Florida goes hungry.
