Mama's Kitchen

Mama's Kitchen is a San Diego-based nonprofit healthcare service organization that provides medically tailored meals and nutrition support to people and families vulnerable to malnutrition because of critical illness. The organization operates county-wide in San Diego County and delivers breakfast, lunch, and dinner free of charge throughout the year to eligible clients referred by healthcare providers or case managers. Its model sits within the Food is Medicine field rather than drug development, and its core offering is dietitian-informed, medically tailored meal delivery and related nutrition services. Mama's Kitchen is not a biotech or pharmaceutical developer, but it is healthcare-related because it supports patients with serious conditions including HIV, cancer, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease.
