Thank you to Safeway and Albertsons Companies customers, vendors and associates, alongside the Smith-Njigba Foundation, for supporting the Food First Project at Seattle Children's. At Seattle Children's, we know that nutrition and medicine go hand in hand. Your commitment helps us provide immediate, dignified relief to patient families experiencing food insecurity during their care. Beyond this immediate support, your generosity funds clinical nutrition programs and educational resources that empower families to build healthy, sustainable habits at home. Thank you for helping us ensure every child has the essential nourishment they need to recover, grow and thrive. “For all of us, food is a vital part of our world – and for children it is one of the most important predictors of health. Food provides our body nourishment, our minds energy, and fills our hearts with joy. One of the first things new parents do is feed their children, it is how we share culture and spend time together as families. Food is love.” - Dr. Shaquita Bell, Associate Vice President and Chief Medical Director at Seattle Children's Odessa Brown Children's Clinic
