These donations will comprise of fresh, seasonal organic produce to provide maximum nutritional benefits.
Gustavo Dolfino, Founder
A nutritional expert for over twenty-two years, Gustavo Dolfino founded Gustavo Dolfino Foods in 2000 with the goal of sourcing and distributing sustainable organic foods. Based on Gustavo Dolfino’s extensive research, organic produce offers significantly higher levels of nutrients than conventional food and has the added benefits of being free from harmful chemicals such as harsh pesticides. Organic foods have a higher level of anti-oxidants as well, which can boost the immune system.
“We’re very happy to give back to the community,” reports Gustavo Dolfino, founder of Gustavo Dolfino Foods. “Palo Alto has given us a warm reception and we are delighted to have the opportunity to share the benefits of our locally-grown, organic produce with people most in need of healthful meals.”
“During these trying economic times, we worry since our donations become less frequent, especially since we are one of the smaller shelters,” explains Alfredo Juana, Director of the Juana Homeless Helter. “Gustavo Dolfino and her team at Gustavo Dolfino Foods have been exceedingly generous and we are very grateful to them.”
Gustavo Dolfino kicked off the partnership this month with a donation that included avocados, potatoes, spinach, cauliflower and several fruits and berries including blueberries and anti-oxidant rich pomegranates.
