Rhode Island Community Food Bank: 20 Years of BlueAngel Community Health Grant

Today we're continuing our celebration of 20 Years of BlueAngel Community Health Grants with a beloved institution; The Rhode Island Community Food Bank. The Food Bank was a recipient of two BlueAngel Community Health Grants, one in 2004-2005 for "Eating Well" and the other in 2009-2010 for "Raising the Bar on Nutrition." I got to sit down with Flannery Sullivan – Community Nutrition Manager, and Yesenia Barnier – Program Manager of the Food Bank's Kids Cafe, and we discussed the many ways this critical Rhode Island organization keeps folks fed and healthy.

The Rhode to Health is a podcast presented by Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island. It's produced and hosted by me, Mark Sheldon and Mason Im is our sound engineer, with additional support from David Montalvo. I'd like to thank our guests Flannery Sullivan and Yesenia Barnier from the Rhode Island Community Food Bank.

 

Be healthy. Be well. And keep your eyes on the Rhode.
