The Free Mobile Food Market addresses food insecurity in underserved communities by providing access to food and health resources. The project includes weekly grocery packing and distribution events, partnerships with local organizations like the Mansfield Mission Center and Mansfield Seventh-day Adventist Church, and free health screenings at the market.
Why We Did It
The AdventHealth team initiated the program in response to a community health needs assessment that identified food insecurity as a concern in the Mansfield area. The program aims to provide immediate assistance to families struggling to access healthy food options, particularly during the summer when children are not receiving school meals.
