At Arukah, we are more than just a resource—we are a hub for healing. Our mission is to restore the health, wellness, and financial well-being of families in Detroit by providing transformative programs that empower families and create thriving communities.

Nourish Detroit

Restoring Health, Empowering Families, and Strengthening Communities

Access to nutritious food is a major barrier for families in Detroit, impacting long-term health outcomes. Ultra-processed foods make up 50% of the average American diet, and 1 in 2 Americans has a chronic disease, many of which are preventable through better nutrition. Black communities face higher rates of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease due to food insecurity and healthcare access issues, making programs like Nourish Detroit essential.

Nourish Detroit is our initiative to combat nutritious food insecurity while equipping families with the skills and knowledge to build healthier lives. This program provides:

Bi-weekly wellness packages filled with fresh, nutrient-dense foods sourced from Detroit Urban Farmers.
Monthly Cooking Classes where families learn to prepare healthy meals with expert-led nutrition guidance.

Holistic Nutrition education to help families understand how their food choices impact overall health and well-being.
Gardening Education to teach families how to grow their food, promoting self-sufficiency and long-term sustainability.

By ensuring families have access to fresh food, essential skills, and life-changing education, we are not just feeding families—we are empowering them to thrive and building stronger, healthier neighborhoods.

At Arukah, we believe that when families are strong, communities flourish. Together, we are transforming lives, one family at a time.
