Our mission is to improve the quality of life and the health of individuals with food allergies.

About us

FARE works on behalf of the 33 million Americans who have food allergies, including all those at risk for life-threatening anaphylaxis. This potentially deadly disease affects 1 in every 13 children in the United States – or roughly 2 in every classroom. FARE was formed in 2012 as the result of a merger between the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network and the Food Allergy Initiative. FARE’s mission is to improve the quality of LIFE and the HEALTH of individuals with food allergies, and to provide them HOPE through the promise of new treatments. We do this by funding providing evidence-based education and resources, undertaking advocacy at all levels of government, increasing awareness of food allergy as potentially life-threatening and a growing public health issue and by investing in world-class research that advances treatment and understanding of the disease.

    "The summer after turning 16, all of a sudden, I developed food allergies (pork, peanuts, tree nuts, bell pepper). Over the years, my allergies have gotten worse despite my strict avoidance, as well as turning anaphylactic, and I have developed more (wheat- also celiac, dairy). My worst allergies are peanuts, hazelnut, and bell pepper- being anaphylactic and airborne. The trouble with an allergy like bell pepper is it’s not well known that paprika is made of bell pepper, and paprika is in EVERYTHING- typically guided under the label “spices.” It’s so important that companies pay attention to their labeling. I am not extremely strict on reading labels and sticking with loyal brands, however some brands don’t list full allergen statements on their packaging but in FAQ sections on websites. I have learned this the hard way over the past few years, and I hope that in the future if any of the major allergens are within factories, they should be listed in allergy statements on labels that indicate the potential for cross-contamination. This action can literally save lives." Submit your story for a chance to be featured on an upcoming #FARESundayStory here: https://lnkd.in/eYqzC_dJ
