Basic Needs / HealthFarmers Market Coupons

Community Outreach Day is an annual event where UA Network Partners go out into their communities sharing resource bags and caring for their neighbors. One of the critical items in that resource bag is a coupon that can be redeemed at local farmers markets. More than providing some free nutritious food, these coupons also help in efforts to change food desserts – areas where healthy food choices are scarce (even if highly processed or unhealthy choices may seem abundant) 

Thousands of coupons are given out every year in our ongoing efforts to bring health & vitality to families, and to ensure everyone’s basic needs are being met.

Sponsorship Opportunities

What if your organization could get it’s name in front of more than 10,000 Hartford residents? And what if it was in connection with something as worthwhile as providing nutritious options to those very same people?
