The Antares team is pleased to support the Capital Area United Way’s (CAUW) Women United in helping those who have been affected by the economic impact of COVID-19. CAUW’s initiative, United We Feed and Women United have partnered with The Life of a Single Mom to provide produce boxes and grocery store gift cards to at-risk moms in our area.
As we have all seen during this pandemic, access to some supplies and especially fresh fruits and vegetables is limited. Children are not in school and summer programs are limited if available at all so many families are not eating healthy foods. Eating fruits and vegetables every day helps children and teenagers grow and develop, boosts their vitality and can reduce the risk of many chronic diseases.
The CAUW has already held some distributions of these produce boxes, but this project is specifically targeted toward single mothers and their children. The idea of giving them a grocery gift card is to assist with other necessities as well.
The Fresh Produce Boxes are a great way to support our community in need:
