A nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing nutritional security in Puerto Rico. Its mission is to support, empower, and stimulate innovative projects focused on nutritional well-being across the island.
Recognizing the critical issue of food insecurity in Puerto Rico, especially its escalation during the pandemic, the organization has set forth to establish a fund. This fund is designed to provide substantial grants to handpicked projects, ensuring they receive both financial backing and expert guidance in nutrition security for holistic development.
With a solid financial foundation, Nutriendo PR operates in three primary domains: facilitating donations and mentorship, bridging connections between leaders and organizations in nutrition, health, and equity, and advocating for nutritional security as a priority in both public and private sectors.
The end-goal is to motivate the consumption of nutritious food, impart knowledge and skills for food preparation, and guarantee access to affordable nutritious food sources.
Beyond its fund initiatives, Nutriendo PR is also actively engaged in hosting events that open channels of communication on the topic, aiming to create a robust network of allies and collaborators dedicated to the nutritional security of Puerto Rico.
