“With the full support of the owners of Atlantic Natural Foods, we have made a commitment to provide relief to the Seventh-day Adventist community and the great people of South Texas dealing with the tragedy and aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. We will be doing what we can to provide assistance by donating Loma Linda vegetarian products in the amount of $100,000.

We believe that we are accountable to higher powers and we should serve all people to the best of our ability in our daily life.
