Feeding Families Foundation
Feeding Families Foundation is a non-profit organization that aims to address food security and affordability for parents and caregivers of pediatric patients admitted to the hospital. Its mission is to cover the cost of three meals per day for the parents/caregivers of pediatric patients during their hospital stay. Parents will not need to leave their child’s side. The meals are delivered directly to the room with the patient’s meal tray so that they can enjoy a meal together. At a time when parents are facing uncertainty about their child’s diagnosis, they are also dealing with costs associated with deductibles, coinsurance, and any costs of services that may not be covered by insurance. They are experiencing an increase in other costs as well including gas to and from the hospital, hospital parking, and childcare for their other children. These additional financial burdens add up and amplify the strain on families already suffering from the emotional and physical toll of having a child in the hospital. Covering the cost of hospital food for parents is a small gesture that will reduce some of the financial and mental stress, allowing caregivers to focus on their child and treatment.
Feeding Families Foundation has partnered with Yale New Haven Children's Hospital and will launch its pilot program on the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology floor at Smilow Cancer Hospital starting January 1, 2024. As the organization grows, they expect to open services to other areas of the Children’s Hospital, including the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, and even expand to other hospitals. Early conversations with Connecticut Children's Hospital have taken place. This program benefit is available to the caregiver present with a critically ill child admitted to the hospital regardless of financial situation; age, race, or religion; patient condition, illness, or injury; and regardless of the length of inpatient stay.
