Nourishing families facing life-threatening illness through food, creativity, and connection.
At just five months old, Emmy was diagnosed with a rare childhood cancer. During her treatment, she and her family walked a long path in pursuit of healing, nourishment, and wholeness. Today, Emmy’s journey and her strength continue to inspire a growing movement dedicated to supporting others on the same path.
Emmy's Story
OUR MISSION
​
Empowering families experiencing illness to achieve optimal wellness through nourishing foods, wellness activities and meaningful gatherings.
"I'm am a firm believer that without some rain clouds every once in awhile, you can't fully appreciate all the sunny days. Taking the time to suss out some positive aspect of a negative situation, takes it and turns it into something that you can learn from from, building upon insight and strength. It doesn't have to remain some adverse shadow that follows you around souring your days, but something you can sometimes harness and legitimately grow from. It also, like those rain clouds, makes the good in our lives seem that much better, the sun shining a bit brighter."
~Mike Welle, Co-Founder of Emmy's Friends
