Community Servings
Bergmeyer | 2022 Corporate Social Responsibility Report
Thousands of people in Massachusetts experience a range
of critical and chronic illnesses, such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes,
cancer, and kidney disease, that can be mitigated by a
healthy diet. Community Servings’ tagline is “Meals that
make a difference.” Community Servings’ registered dietitians
have created 15 unique medical diets designed “to help
people improve their health through nutritionally-appropriate
food scratch-made from wholesome ingredients.” They also
deliver and ship meals to critically-ill individuals – and their
families – throughout eastern Massachusetts.

WE
BELIEVE
IN THE
ASTONISHING
POWER OF
FOOD.
Having outgrown their original Jamaica Plain facility,
Community Servings sought to create a remote distribution
facility in Mansfield, MA, to accommodate a second crew of
volunteers to pack meals for delivery and serve as a second
distribution hub. With Bergmeyer’s experience in restaurant
design, we were happy to take Community Servings on as a
client. In the process, we learned a lot about how nutrition is
critical to human health and wellness, and how poverty can
be a real impediment to nutrition. Said Principal-in-Charge
Matt Hyatt: “It is very meaningful to Bergmeyer to be able to
support an organization that brings the health benefits of
good nutrition to all members of our community.”
