This makes access to allergy-friendly foods essential in times of emergency. FOODiversity and PAKCharlotte are collecting donations of allergy-friendly foods for those in need. They have created Amazon Wishlists to collect these donations. As #HurricaneMilton makes landfall in Florida this week, Florida residents will also need support. Stay tuned for relief efforts and ways you can help. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eSGw7fA7 #FoodAllergies #FoodDonations #FoodDrive
