Welcome to the KC Health Initiative

The KC Health Initiative was founded by Gigi Jones.

Also, the founder of Midwest Soul Vegfest and a cancer survivor, who is living evidence of the healing power of a whole plant-based lifestyle.  

That same diet is also the only diet that has ever been shown in the medical literature to halt and reverse established coronary artery disease – currently our number one killer. It is now her passion to provide others the education and support that made it possible for her to turn her health around. 

We believe that having access to health resources and learning how to eat a clean, organic, plant-based diet will improve the health of the individual and the planet, while also providing the foundation for a longer, more energized lifespan. Working together we want to build a strong health and justice focused community base. 

The time is right for our community to learn that food can be your medicine. So, empower them with the resources and knowledge to successfully make healthy lifestyle change. Good personal health also facilitates people supporting each other and building healthier communities.  

We strive to provide our community with key health educational, seminars, festivals, & free plant-based meals to children and their families in our urban core community.

We believe knowledge results in smart healthy lifestyle changes.  Your support will help us in continuing to support our community, families, and our children in decreasing obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure in our children and in our communities.
