Makers Nutrition is Supporting Friends of Karen with $1,000 Donation

— March 26, 2026 — Social Good
Makers Nutrition, a custom supplement manufacturer based in New York, has contributed $1,000 to Friends of Karen in support of the organization’s Springtime Holiday Grocery Gift Card Drive — an initiative aimed at providing grocery gift cards to families caring for children with life-threatening illnesses in the New York Tri-State area.

Makers Nutrition's donation is intended to alleviate some of the financial pressure these families face, particularly the strain of grocery costs that can accumulate alongside medical bills, travel for appointments, and time away from work.

Rosemary Tambini, Director of Multimedia Marketing at Makers Nutrition, shared: "At Makers Nutrition, we believe that supporting families who can use the helping hand is a responsibility we all share. We are honored to contribute to Friends of Karen's Springtime Holiday Grocery Gift Card Drive and help provide some relief to parents who are facing unimaginable challenges. If our donation can ease even a small part of their burden, then it is truly meaningful to us."
