Humana and Conviva Volunteers Pack Meals to Fight Hunger in South Florida

Humana and Conviva Senior Primary Care joined forces with Feeding South Florida and U.S. Hunger on Thursday, Sept. 4, 2025, for a powerful day of service aimed at addressing food insecurity in South Florida. As part of Humana’s annual Community Day, hundreds of volunteers across the region dedicated their time to helping local families and seniors gain easier access to nutritious meals.

At Feeding South Florida’s Pembroke Park warehouse, Humana volunteers sorted and packaged thousands of pounds of food for distribution to food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, and community partners across the region. This effort supports Feeding South Florida’s mission to end hunger by providing food access and education. The organization serves as a critical link between food donors and those in need, and the volunteer support from Humana amplifies its impact.

Meanwhile, at the Fort Lauderdale War Memorial, Conviva Senior Primary Care partnered with U.S. Hunger to pack 100,000 meals, providing immediate support for families experiencing food insecurity. U.S. Hunger focuses on delivering meals to underserved communities, and the collaboration with Conviva ensures that vulnerable seniors receive nutritious options.

Together, Humana, Conviva, and their partners are helping to break the cycle of hunger through hands-on service, demonstrating their shared commitment to improving the health and well-being of the communities they serve. This initiative highlights the critical role corporate partnerships play in addressing social determinants of health, such as food insecurity, which directly impacts overall wellness.

The event underscores the growing need for community-driven solutions to hunger. According to Feeding South Florida, one in eight individuals in the region faces food insecurity, and seniors are particularly at risk. By mobilizing volunteers and resources, Humana and Conviva are not only providing immediate relief but also fostering long-term resilience. The partnership with Feeding South Florida ensures that the sorted food reaches those who need it most, while the meal-packing initiative with U.S. Hunger addresses a critical gap in emergency food supplies.

This commitment aligns with Humana’s broader goal of creating healthier communities. The company’s Community Day, an annual event, encourages employees to volunteer in local initiatives, reinforcing the idea that health extends beyond medical care. Conviva Senior Primary Care, a network of primary care centers focused on seniors, similarly emphasizes comprehensive well-being, recognizing that access to nutritious food is a cornerstone of preventive health.

The impact of this day of service will be felt across South Florida, as the packaged meals and sorted food reach families and seniors struggling to put food on the table. By leveraging corporate resources and volunteer power, Humana and Conviva are setting an example for how businesses can contribute to solving complex social issues like hunger. This initiative not only provides immediate relief but also strengthens the community’s ability to support itself in the future.
