Microgreens Outreach Project strives to make healthy eating behaviors easier and more convenient for less nutrition privileged communities. In doing so, we aim to lessen the overall burden of chronic disease and facilitate a connection between foods eaten and grown and health outcomes. Our dedicated team partners with community-based organizations and academic institutions to educate and equip individuals with a novel nutritional supplement that is accessible, time efficient and low-cost.

Jump Into Reading provides Drexel medical students the chance to read to young children once a week throughout the course of the year. The program takes place at the Eliza Shirley House, which is a women's shelter located in Philadelphia. Because these kids are going through a difficult period in their lives, we hope to provide a safe and fun environment for them and hopefully instill in them a lifelong love of reading.

The Stress Reduction program is held at the DePaul House, which is a transitional home for recently homeless men. Volunteers have informal discussions with the residents and provide techniques for dealing with stress, such as breathing exercises, art, yoga, meditation, and progressive muscle relaxation. Our goal is to teach and practice different stress reduction techniques with the residents, so the sessions are very calming and relaxed. Our patient population includes recently homeless men currently living in a transitional home.
