Part 1 ✨#fuelyoungathletes #foodinsecurity #endhungertogether #athletemealplan #nutritionishealth
✨I’m thrilled to announce the launch of our nonprofit organization, Athlete Meal Plan! ✨
This initiative is a passion project designed by athletes for athletes. We created Athlete Meal Plan to address food insecurity among youth and college-aged athletes by repurposing food waste into dietitian-crafted, performance-focused meals for those who need them most.
💡Key facts:
- 60% of college athletes report experiencing food insecurity.
- 35% of athletes say that hunger has affected their performance.
- Student-athletes are 4x more likely to face food insecurity compared to their peers.
No athlete should have to choose between proper nutrition and optimal performance. Through partnerships with food vendors, schools, and sports programs, we aim to nourish the next generation of athletes while also protecting our planet.
Every athlete, regardless of their background, deserves the tools, support, and nourishment needed to thrive both on and off the field.

HELP US GET OUR KITCHEN!
We’re so excited to have officially launched The Athlete Meal Plan and have exciting news!
WE FOUND A KITCHEN!
This kitchen includes everything we need to grow our organization and will allow us to support our athletes. Our goal is to raise $30,000 to ensure we have a dedicated kitchen space for at least 6 months. This is the last piece needed for AMP to grow and succeed. 🌱
Please find the donation link in our bio! And thank you! Every step towards fighting food insecurity and protecting our planet counts. We couldn’t do this without you 🫶🏽
Today on Giving Tuesday, the Athlete Meal Plan is celebrating over 540 meals delivered and more than 7,000 lbs of food rescued thanks to your generosity and support!
Because of you, we are fueling potential and reducing waste.
