A Jamaica Plain non-profit is the recipient of a $50,000 grant from the Newman’s Own Foundation. Community Servings, an organization which provides nutritional education for people living with critical and chronic diseases, will use the money to launch the Family Nutrition Initiative, according to the Boston Business Journal. The initiative will include nutrition workshops to educate children and families who have just transitioned to public housing, according to BBJ.
