Story

In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 3000 people die from foodborne illness annually.

Imagine if ten planes fell from the sky EVERY YEAR and 3000 people died due to a preventable system failure. The demands for answers, solutions and changes would be deafening.

For more than 28 years, Stop Foodborne Illness (STOP) has been working toward solutions and collaborating with like-minded partners to build bridges and find answers that will protect everyone. It is a matter of life and death!

TODAY we are working on projects targeted at altering foodborne illness statistics. STOP is leading teams of committed experts dedicated for achieving consumer-centric modernization of the US food recall system, pressing for policy changes in US poultry inspections, as well as researching early detection of foodborne illness and much, much more.

Everything we do, we do to STOP 3000 people from losing their lives from something as fundamental as eating. STOP, along with industry, regulatory agencies, and consumers are focused on changing behavior and processes to improve food safety for the greater good.

Help us give 3000 silenced voices an opportunity to be heard.

Participate in STOP3000 and double your donation, thanks to a generous $100K challenge grant that matches every dollar for dollar when you give.

Step up with us to STOP3000 and begin changing lives.
