💡 Why This Program Exists
FarmboxRx was created to address the lack of access to fresh food among millions of Americans.
The goals are:
-
Improve nutrition for vulnerable groups
-
Reduce healthcare costs long-term
-
Promote healthy habits in a practical way
📊 Studies have shown that food benefits in health plans can reduce medication use and improve overall well-being.
