Some facts about MANNA (Metropolitan Aids Neighborhood Nutrition Alliance)

Mission: We work to provide direct nutritional support and education to persons living with HIV/AIDS in Philadelphia, Delaware County or southern New Jersey.

Purpose: We provide three nutritious meals, free of charge, Monday though Sunday.  Additionally we provide nutrition education and counseling to providers and consumers of HIV-related services.

Service: MANNA prepares more than 9,000 meals a week for people living in Greater Philadelphia, Southern New Jersey and Eastern Delaware County.  Through our satellite distribution centers many volunteers deliver meals in neighborhoods in which they live and work.  Most of the people serviced live at bare subsistence level.  More than 45% of our clients are women and children, and 85% are people of color.
