Foundational Vitamins and Minerals Boost Physical and Mental Health
Across the country, too many people lack access to the nutrition they need.
For young adults faced with homelessness, poverty, and food insecurity, the problem is even more severe. When these young individuals suffer from nutrient deficiencies, brain development, mental health, and physical health can all be put in jeopardy.
This is why we’ve made it a focus to deliver the right supplements to the individuals who need them most. Based on the latest science, we select key vitamins and minerals and make them a core part of the gift bags we deliver.
Delivering Supplements That Meet a Critical Need
Every month our delivery partners— non-profits, shelters, respite centers,churches and other agencies— receive supplements as part of their gift bags.
For every $5 donation, we can deliver a gift bag that includes +$100?? worth of premium minerals and resources.
For many people in the U.S., access to adequate nutrition is a challenge. But for young adults experiencing homelessness, poverty and food insecurity, the problem is even more severe. They are especially vulnerable to nutrient deficiencies, which can lead to underdeveloped brains, chronic illness and significant mental health struggles. The situation is worsened by the effects of unaddressed childhood trauma, easy access to ultra-processed foods, and the additional challenges of neurological conditions.
Anxiety, depression and neurological conditions are all on the rise. Supplements can be life-changing, offering critical support for both physical and mental well-being.

Without enough fish, the primary source of these fatty acids, we need to take supplements to support brain and nerve health, cognitive function to support learning, memory, attention, and even mood regulation. Without Omega-3's, kids may be robbed of their best future. Supports brain and nerve health, cognitive function
