Orgain Kicks Off Partnership with Los Angeles Food Policy Council

Orgain’s mission is to help more people live vibrant lives through the power of clean nutrition. Recently, Orgain has started a partnership with the Los Angeles Food Policy Council (LAFPC) to rally our supporters to help people in underserved neighborhoods in the greater Los Angeles area gain access to better nutrition.

As part of the relationship, Orgain will support the organization’s Healthy Neighborhood Market Network, a program empowering small business owners in low-income neighborhoods to bring good food to their communities. By working with storeowners to champion healthy food access, the Healthy Neighborhood Market Network supports community vitality and economic development. Storeowners receive training, guidance and upgrades to their stores, transforming them into beacons of healthy, affordable food. As a result, communities have more options for living a healthy life.

In partnership with LAFPC, Orgain is working to transform Village Mart & Deli into a convenient and healthy food retail option for residents. The partnership will bring to life the first-ever Farm Stand in El Sereno for residents in April 2022.
