2011 Cause Marketing Partnership

2. Helping Boston’s Highest-Risk Families
The Phantom Gourmet and Boston Medical Center (BMC) are working together to make a difference in the
lives of Boston’s highest-risk families. Through the creation of the Phantom Gourmet 2011 Meal Deals
Book, the Phantom Gourmet and BMC will work with local retailers to raise money for the BMC Food
Pantry.
At BMC, a doctor’s prescription might be for a bag of healthful groceries and the hospital’s Food Pantry is
the place to get it. Studies have shown that eating a healthy diet can be too costly for many low-income
families and large families will often turn to cheaper and more filling fast food. To supplement patients’
resources, BMC created the Food Pantry, the only hospital run food pantry in the entire country.
Demand for the Food Pantry has increased dramatically as more and more workers are losing their jobs
due to the struggling economy. Nearly 7,000 BMC patients and their family members use the pantry each
month, obtaining culturally appropriate foods for diets that are nutritious and therapeutic.
The pantry relies totally on philanthropy to help keep the shelves stocked. BMC patients can not only get
healthful food, but also learn to cook nutritious meals in the Demonstration Kitchen. Classes are offered
in special areas like cardiac rehabilitation, weight reduction and diabetic diets.
