“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.”
Tupac Shakur
At the Mathurin Family Foundation, we believe that access to nutritious food is a fundamental human right—not a privilege. Food insecurity directly affects individual health, economic stability, and the well-being of entire communities. Poor diets can increase the risk of chronic diseases, reduce cognitive development in children, and drive up healthcare costs—harsh realities that disproportionately impact underserved populations.
Good nutrition is also essential for athletic performance, fueling muscles, supporting bone development, and promoting overall health, including cognitive function and emotional resilience. That’s why we are committed to helping close the gap. Through food drives and community partnerships, we strive to ensure that no child or family goes hungry—because when basic needs are met, people can truly thrive.
