Our Purpose
The Wholesome Crave Mission
Chef Michel Nischan co-founded the groundbreaking nonprofit Wholesome Wave in 2007 to end food and nutrition insecurity in America. He then founded Wholesome Crave in 2018 to provide delicious, nutritious meals that support a healthier planet and equitable access to wholesome food. Every bowl is a step toward a more sustainable and just food future with a portion of each sale directly supporting the systems-change work of Wholesome Wave. Together, we leverage the power of food to make the world a healthier, more vibrant, and more equitable home for all.
Addressing America's Food Insecurity Crisis
We are committed to donating a portion of every sale to Wholesome Wave, an organization that works tirelessly to end food and nutrition insecurity across America by increasing the affordability and access to fresh produce for everyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, income, or zip code.
