Wellness center joins Organnons to bring organic food to patients

Posted

Main St. Missions, the nonprofit behind the Corinne Sikora Wellness and Support Center, has been hard at work securing a partnership with one of Bucks County’s premier organic markets, Organnons Natural Market (Newtown and New Britain).

The partnership, forged between owner Jim Gannon and Main St. Missions, will focus on healthy nutritional offerings the center is building through a custom nutritional cooking program and juice bar.

As part of this partnership, Organnons will provide the organic products to support the food and nutrition program. The program will involve notable local Bucks County chefs working side-by-side with the center’s certified nutritionists and dietitians to prepare and cook healthy food for patients and their family and caregivers. The program will also allow for participants to take home ingredients to replicate meals made for them at the center. Additionally, a full service Organnons-sponsored juice station will provide a variety of fresh drinks, including kombucha, wheat grass, carrot and celery juice.

A “Round Up” campaign is set for the entire month of May. Customers will have the opportunity to round up their order with every purchase at both Organnons locations. One hundred percent of the Round Up will benefit the Corinne Sikora Wellness and Support Center.

The Corinne Sikora Wellness and Support Center is a 5,000-square-foot cancer center dedicated to patients, their families and caregivers at Heritage Center in Buckingham.

The center will be a place where patients can have their non-medical – yet critical – emotional, physical, social and lifestyle needs met throughout their journey of treatment, recovery and beyond and will welcome anyone battling cancer, regardless of where they are receiving treatment.

The center’s fundraising efforts have already raised over $300,000, half way to its goal of $600,000. The no-profit is seeking additional Founding Partners to join Pine2Pink/Main St. Missions and Green Street Real Estate. Founding Partner Program is for individuals or business interest in committing $100,000 or more.
