Mindful Munch was born out of firsthand experience in the CPG industry. We noticed that many nutritious items, though nearing the end of their acceptable shelf life for grocery retail, still had months of shelf stability and valuable nutrients to offer. This sparked an idea: What if these high-quality, healthy products could be redirected to benefit local communities rather than go to waste? Seeing an opportunity to make a difference, we envisioned creating a network of partnerships with other CPG companies to gather a surplus of healthy snacks.

With the support of these companies, the aim became to distribute these products to youth in after-school programs across Utah. Our mission grew to not only provide access to nutritious food but also to educate young people on the lasting impact of good nutrition, particularly in reducing the risk of preventable diseases. From this vision, we emerged, with a commitment to supporting Utah’s youth with both resources and knowledge for healthier futures. Today, we’re proud to partner with CPG brands and community organizations to offer children the tools they need for long-lasting wellness.
