Become a Partner

Many companies find partnering with One Heart for Women and Children extremely rewarding for the direct impact they can have on the community. There are many ways that your company can become involved with food insecurity in Central Florida.

Why One Heart for Women and Children?

Your involvement with One Heart for Women and Children will create a lasting effect on the community. Hundreds of children and families go to bed hungry each and every day in Central Florida. Many low income working families have to choose between paying rent, utilities and buying food to feed their families. When you are able to nourish your body a domino effect will happen to create a better tomorrow.

Many families do not qualify for governmental food assistance and rely on One Heart and other food pantries to secure the food they need. Children who do not get adequate nutrition often experience developmental impairments, struggle in school, or have social and behavioral problems. By giving children the nutritious food we supply, you’re giving them a brighter future.

Often the need for food comes with other challenges. Partnering with One Heart for Women and Children will help provide the basic necessities for these individuals to overcome their hardship with dignity, love and respect.
