Support our work!
AWIN is a 501C3 charitable organization founded by Registered Dietitian Nutritionists who share a passion for global nutrition work. All our board members have experience working as volunteers or consultants in low resource countries.
We are dedicated to providing pathways for dietitians and related professionals to advance nutritional care where there is little nutrition infrastructure. Board members are volunteers and receive no payment for services, nor do we maintain a physical office.
The World Health Organization recognizes nutrition as the #1 health issue in the world and yet there are commonly few qualified nutrition health care professionals in the countries and regions where they are most needed.
Alice Wimpfheimer International Nutrition (AWIN) is dedicated to funding the training and mentoring of nutrition professionals and students within and outside the United States.
We support professional groups, including within the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, but also non-governmental organizations, training and academic projects, research, and anything that enables more effective global humanitarian nutrition care. We support activities within high resource countries only as they support the humanitarian nutrition efforts in low and mid resource countries.
