A 501(c)3 non-profit corporation that sends boxes of Certified Gluten-Free snacks to children diagnosed with Celiac Disease!
ABOUT NICK’S SNACK PACK
Hi there! We are Jennifer and Joe and we are parents to a child with Celiac Disease. Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disease where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine, and is estimated to affect over 2 million Americans. The only treatment for Celiac Disease is to adhere to a strict gluten-free diet, which can be difficult, especially for children.
We know the social and emotional struggles that children with Celiac Disease experience when it comes to food, and studies have shown that Celiac children have greater levels of anxiety and depression. And that’s why we’re excited to bring JOY to these kids by gifting them with a FREE box of Certified Gluten-Free snacks, just for them!

HOW IT WORKS
GLUTEN-FREE BRAND PARTNERSHIPS
We partner with companies who donate Certified Gluten-Free snacks for us to distribute to children with Celiac Disease. With the product contributions from our partner companies we curate a box filled with yummy gluten-free goodies for your child to try!
REQUEST A BOX
We post sign-ups for our “Snack Packs” as they are available! We typically release approximately 30 “Snack Packs” per month and they are mailed on a first-come, first-serve basis. If you have a child who is 12 years old or younger and diagnosed with Celiac Disease, and you would like a “Snack Pack”, keep your eyes on our social media pages to find out when we will be making more available!
ENJOY!
You & your kiddo receive their snack pack and the fun begins! It’s snack time! They can dig in (with your permission, of course) to try a bunch of different yummy AND safe treats. Hopefully you’ll find some new options to add to your pantry to keep the smiles coming!
DONATIONS
Donations are a vital part of keeping our organization going! Any amount helps us with costs of materials, shipping fees and other overhead costs. We hope you’ll consider making a donation to help us grow so we can reach even more children who struggle with dietary restrictions due to Celiac Disease.

"Thank you so much for the 'Snack Pack!' My daughter was SO thrilled to receive it! She was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in June and it's been a challenge to find foods that she likes. So it's amazing to receive so many new foods to try! It was so fun for her to receive her own special package in the mail. Thank you, thank you!"

"This disease is so hard on kids, especially in the beginning when they have to give up those favorite snacks. Finding new favorites can be so hard. I love that you're prodiving this starter pack of new snacks to try. Especially when GF is so expensive this lets them try something before committing to a whole $7 box of something they don't like."

"My son struggles with feeling different and the fact that he got a whole box of snacks just for him thrilled him! And it is so helpful to find GF foods that he likes without having to spend a ton of money just to find out he doesn't like something. This gave us a whole list of items to grab!"
