Wise Wellness Guild + Crunchmaster Fuel COVID-19 Frontline Workers
Cincinnati, OH— April 7, 2020— Founder Stevi Gable Carr announced today that the Wise Wellness Guild™ has partnered with national brands, foremost Crunchmaster, to provide healthy food options to those on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic. During times of stress, whole-self wellness has never been more important.
“Our mission is to help those at the highest risk of burnout, and currently those are the people on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic” Carr said. “With the support of several national brands, with Crunchmaster at the helm and The Sample Guy, Inc to assist with logistics, we are on track to distribute 750,000 products nationally within 30 days.”
In honor of World Health Day, Wise Wellness Guild has orchestrated the donation of 125,000 sealed food packages of Crunchmaster Crackers to the frontline healthcare professions of eight local hospitals and grocery employees of The Kroger Company in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region who are risking their lives each day during these unprecedented times.
“The Crunchmaster team believes in the Wise Wellness Guild mission and was happy to answer Stevi’s call to help in this time of need. Personally, as a Cincinnati native, I feel this is a great opportunity to give back to those courageous men and women serving my hometown community” said Braden Bennie Senior Marketing Manager, Crunchmaster.
“In times of stress our bodies need to be fueled with only the best, healthiest ingredients to maintain the energy levels required for peak performance in the moment. As a long-time consumer of Crunchmaster myself, I’ve always been a fan of their natural, gluten-free crackers and was honored when they immediately offered, without hesitation, to help when called upon.”
A Word from the Front Lines
“Women are more likely to over extend themselves in support of others, often placing their own health and wellness as a last priority,” explains Gina Maccarone, MD, Founding Member of Wise Wellness Guild. “Notably, eighty-percent of the 18m health care workers in America are women and they are already at the highest risk of burnout in the country- under these stressful circumstances we need to ensure we help them create space for managing their wellness. For working mothers, staying at home while continuing to build a career creates additional stress and challenges, exasperating existing issues- Wise aims to provide support during this time.”
