Project Open Hand Wellness Programs serve the sick and vulnerable who need nutritious food to support their medical treatment. Our evidence-based research proves that nutritious Food is Medicine. For our neighbors fighting illness, good nutrition can help them heal quicker, get stronger faster, and lead healthier lives.
