On April 4, 2024, Amerigroup MS donated $50,000 to the Mississippi Food Network. This generous donation will provide nutritious and balanced food options for students and their families during school closures. This donation will directly support over 1000 families currently facing food insecurity in Sunflower and Forest counties.
The collaboration between Amerigroup MS and the Mississippi Food Network spans over four years and illustrates a shared dedication to combating food insecurity and promoting overall well-being in the State of Mississippi.
In addition to this donation, Amerigroup MS actively engages in various community initiatives by supporting critical areas such as workforce development, maternal health, financial literacy, and nutrition literacy. Through these efforts, Amerigroup MS remains steadfast in its commitment to improving health outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for Mississippians.
“Partnering with the Mississippi Food Network aligns perfectly with our commitment to address the root causes of health disparities and support the overall well-being of Mississippi communities,” stated Misti McNichols, Medicaid Territory Marketing Manager at Amerigroup Mississippi “We take pride in our longstanding collaboration with the Mississippi Food Network and are dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of individuals and families throughout the state.”
