ALEIA Project

ALEIA Project was born from the combined experiences of 3 moms, who live near Duluth, Minnesota, that currently live a food allergy lifestyle. Combined, the founders of ALEIA Project have 30+ years of food allergy navigation experience and collectively avoid 10+ foods between 5 of their 8 kids. Prior to the development of the ALEIA Project, the founders held food allergy awareness walks in 2018 and 2019. The walk was created in direct response to educate, empower and support those impacted by food allergy within the community, raise awareness about food allergy and to raise funds for medical research.

Our Why: ALEIA Project wants children and adults with food allergy to experience life without limits. To experience birthday parties, social gatherings, and sporting events safely alongside their fellow community members. To always have a safe seat at the table, and to never have to sit alone again. To never have to be afraid of food. In turn, ALEIA Project wants families to feel safe, supported, and empowered. We want them to have the resources to move forward with a new diagnosis, to be able to view the positive sides of food allergy, and to live well without fear. The goal is to educate the community to UNDERSTAND and work alongside those with food allergy.
