Millennium Fellowship Project: Food for Heart Initiative
The Food for Heart Initiative aims to educate people on the relationship between food and cardiovascular health until this knowledge becomes common and accessible to everyone.
To achieve this, we have started by organizing outreaches and seminars on campus and in nearby communities. So far, we have successfully conducted two outreaches and two seminars, reaching and educating approximately 50 people.
Looking ahead, we plan to expand our impact by leveraging social media platforms to spread awareness and by collaborating with like-minded organizations that share our vision. Through these efforts, we aim to create a healthier, more informed society.
