About Founder
Hello! I’m Keyoma, founder of the London Food & Wellness Hub a grassroots, woman-led social enterprise. Drawing on over 12 years in healthcare, mental health, and community advocacy, I lead our mission to combine immediate food support with holistic wellness programs. We are dedicated to empowering youth, single-parent households, and underserved families across London, Ontario ensuring no one has to choose between basic needs, dignity, and personal growth.
Our Story
A community in need.
A vision for something better.
Through my years as a healthcare worker and community advocate, I’ve sat with families navigating silent crises. I’ve seen the heavy toll of food insecurity, isolation, and burnout and I’ve seen the incredible resilience of parents and individuals doing everything they can to keep going. We focus on breaking down systemic barriers for low-income families, single parents, youth, and marginalized communities who are disproportionately impacted by rising costs and isolation.
Food insecurity never exists in a vacuum; it’s deeply tied to mental health, stress, and systemic gaps. That’s why I created the London Food & Wellness Hub a grassroots social enterprise built to nourish bodies, uplift minds, and restore a sense of true community belonging.
Our Social Enterprise Model
We believe in sustainable community care. As a social-purpose enterprise, revenue generated through selected organizational workshops, paid programs, and partnerships is reinvested directly into funding free monthly food boxes, nutrition education, and mental wellness circles for London families. Your support helps seed our grassroots foundation, allowing us to generate earned revenue through specialized workshops and partnerships to continually reinvest in free food and wellness support for London families.
My Journey & Qualifications
Rooted in lived experience, community care, and cultural understanding. My background in addictions, mental health, and healthcare leadership guides every program we offer. Combining evidence-informed practice with genuine lived empathy, our initiatives are built on safety, dignity, and trauma-informed care.
Core Focus Areas:
-
Trauma-Informed & Holistic Care: Supporting the whole person, not just immediate symptoms.
-
Youth & Family Well-Being: Building resilience and practical skills for real-life stability.
-
Community Safety & Trust: Formal screening and ethical standards across all programs and volunteers.
Building a Healthier, More Connected Community
Every meal shared, workshop offered, and relationship built is a step toward equity. You are seen, you are valued, and you are not alone.

Holistic Wellness: Food, Belonging
& Healing Together
Nourishing our bodies and minds builds stronger families, students, and communities in London, Ontario.
At the London Food & Wellness Hub, true well-being requires connecting food security, mental health support, and authentic community relationships. For single parents, marginalized youth, and underserved households, systemic barriers often make these essentials hard to reach.
By breaking down systemic silos and delivering culturally affirming, holistic support, we create a ripple effect across London: students focus better in school, parents experience reduced stress, and neighbours find a true place to belong.

Nutritious food fuels the brain, but mental health support (like our Stress Management Workshops) helps families cope with trauma, racism, and financial strain.
Studies show food insecurity increases depression risk by 250%, especially in racialized communities (Source: PROOF Canada, 2023).
