Delivering Dignity in Disaster: Introducing the #CrisisReliefBox with World Vision

When disaster strikes, communities face overwhelming challenges — and one of the most critical is access to fresh, nutritious food. At Planet Harvest, we believe food is not only a basic need, but a source of hope, strength, and resilience. That’s why we’re proud to partner with World Vision USA to launch the #CrisisReliefBox, an innovative solution designed for speed, dignity, and impact in times of crisis.

A Smarter Way to Deliver Aid

The #CrisisReliefBox is a thoughtfully curated, shelf-stable assortment of fruits, vegetables, and grocery items that require no refrigeration or heating. It’s built specifically to meet the needs of families affected by hurricanes, wildfires, floods, and other emergencies — when electricity, kitchens, and even homes may be out of reach.

Sourced directly from Planet Harvest’s grower network and supply chain partners, the boxes are deployed within days of a disaster — not weeks — ensuring that nutritious, locally-sourced foods reach families when they need them most.

From Farms to Families, Fast

At the heart of this initiative is the power of connection. Through our relationships with growers, food producers, and logistics teams, we’re able to move food quickly and efficiently — shortening the path from field to front door. Every box includes fresh produce grown with care, selected for its shelf stability, flavor, and nutritional value.

This model isn’t just efficient — it’s personal. Families receive real food, grown in their region, that honors their dignity during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

Powered by Partnerships

We are deeply thankful to World Vision USA for their leadership and vision in disaster response, and to the farmers, packers, logistics providers, and community organizations that make this mission possible. Together, we’re proving that public-private collaboration can transform how we respond to emergencies — by feeding people well, and doing it fast.

“From farm to family in just days — that’s the impact we’re striving for. Through emergency feeding and fresh produce and grocery boxes, we’re showing that nutritious food can be part of an immediate and respectful aid solution.”
