May is Asthma & Allergy Awareness Month and we are very excited to be partnering with the Elijah-Alavi Foundation - which encourages diverse and equitable food allergy and asthma resources for children nationwide - to raise awareness of the serious, and exploding increase of Americans suffering from severe food allergies.
We invite you to join us for a Facebook Live Q&A on food allergies with Elijah-Alavi Foundation Co-Founder Thomas Silvera on Thursday, May 13th at 12:30 p.m. MST. Learn about the Foundation’s mission to educate daycares and schools about food allergies and how to treat them in the classroom.
Mulay’s will also donate a portion of proceeds from online sales made between Monday, May 10 – Sunday, May 16th to the Elijah-Alavi Foundation.
Roughly 85 million Americans are impacted by food allergies and intolerances, including 32 million who have a potentially life-threatening condition, according to FARE (Food Allergy Research & Education), the largest private funder of food allergy research in the world. From 2007 to 2016, the United States saw a 377% increase in anaphylactic reactions, sending someone to the emergency room every three minutes!
Mulay’s is very proud to be the first & only meat company to be Certified Free From the “Big 8” food allergens; wheat, soy, milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish.
