Tornado Relief Needed

Editor, Nutraceuticals World

At the request of state leaders, Nourish America launched its “healthy” relief effort to get nutritious foods and essential supplies directly into the hands of victims of the recent tornados and storms that laid a path of destruction across six southeastern states, killing more than 35 people and injuring scores of others in April.

Extensive damage was reported in Little Rock, AR, Tupelo, MS, and coastal regions in Alabama. In support of this disaster relief, Nourish America is asking for cash and product donations from the natural products industry. (Cash contributions can be made at
www.nourishamerica.org.)

Most foods and supplements of the natural products industry are nutrient-dense, shelf-stable, pocket-sized and great tasting. In addition, body care and cleaning supplies are non-toxic. These qualities make natural products excellent and useful relief support items for victims dealing with the trauma of loss and the challenges of rebuilding a life. For this reason, Nourish America particularly welcomes donations from the natural products industry.

Nourish America has partnered with state leaders and emergency workers to assure that its relief items are received and well-used by disaster victims and emergency workers. These partners include the Honorable Asa Hutchison, former undersecretary of Homeland Security and Arkansas gubernatorial candidate as well as Alabama State Senator Linda Coleman; Robin Read, former CEO and president of the National Foundation for Women’s Legislators as well as other community leaders.
