About this organization
Mission
Wholesome Wave is a national non-profit established on the belief that affordable access to fresh fruits and vegetables is a fundamental human right. Our mission is to raise awareness about nutrition insecurity and its effects on our most vulnerable communities, and make fruits and vegetables more accessible and affordable for those suffering from diet-related health risks and conditions, particularly those suffering from the impacts of racial, ethnic, and income inequities. We hold a firm vision that providing people of marginalized communities with the power to choose nutritious food restores their health, their sense of dignity, and their ability to be active, productive members of society.
About
National nutrition incentive network (NNIN)/doubling SNAP: We lead a national network of researchers, community-based nonprofits and program operators to share best practices on our flagship program, which doubles the value of SNAP (formerly known as food stamps) when spent on fruits and vegetables. Our national network is comprised of 1,400+ farmers markets, grocery stores, corner stores, farm stands, CSAs, hospitals, clinics and more across 48 states. We help all of them make produce affordable for those who need it most.
