💙 DAY 2 OF 30: HEAR OUR WHY, THEN GIVE TODAY! 💙

🎥 Voice #2: Randy | Board President & Driver Coordinator

Today, we're highlighting someone who helps keep CFFEIM's mission moving forward—literally! 🚙💚

Meet Randy, our dedicated Board President and Driver Coordinator, who plays an important role in helping CFFEIM serve individuals and families facing cancer and other life-altering health conditions.

In today's video, Randy shares WHY CFFEIM is important to him and what motivates him to continue supporting our mission.

At CFFEIM, our work goes beyond providing nutritious food. It's about showing up for our neighbors, building meaningful connections, and reminding families that they are not alone during some of life's most challenging moments.

💙 Every delivery represents more than groceries. It's an act of compassion, care, and community.

As we continue our 30-day journey toward Giving Tuesday, we invite you to hear Randy's why and consider how your generosity can help us reach even more families in need.

💙 30 VOICES. 30 DAYS. HEAR OUR WHY, THEN GIVE TODAY! 💙

Today, the Center for Food Equity in Medicine (CFFEIM) officially kicks off our 30 Voices, 30 Days Giving Tuesday campaign! 🎉

Why are we doing this? Because the need is growing, and every voice deserves to be heard.

Over the past two years, families have faced increasing financial pressures. From rising healthcare expenses to the growing costs of groceries, housing, and fuel, making ends meet has become increasingly difficult. For individuals and families navigating cancer and other life-altering health conditions, especially those living on fixed incomes or experiencing reductions in food assistance, these challenges can be overwhelming.

At CFFEIM, we believe no one should have to choose between putting food on the table and receiving the medical care they need.

That's why, for the next 30 days, we're sharing 30 voices from our community—Thrivers, caregivers, volunteers, supporters, and partners—each sharing their personal "why" and reminding us why food equity in medicine matters.

These are more than stories. They are real experiences, real challenges, and real reasons to give. ❤️

As we count down to Giving Tuesday on December 1, we invite you to listen, share, and help us continue providing nutritious food and meaningful support to individuals and families facing life-altering health conditions.

✨ 30 Voices. 30 Days. One Mission.

🎥 Follow along each day as we share another powerful voice from our CFFEIM community!

💙 You've heard our why. Now help us continue the work.
