Vivery, from the latin word ‘vive’ means to thrive and live well. We do this by equalizing digital access to food, programs and services. It all began when entrepreneurs, Nasrin and Mark Thierer, pooled their technology and healthcare experience and success and founded Thierer Family Foundation with a mission to help nonprofits be more impactful through technology. After years of building technology for food banks and pantries, Thierer Family Foundation created Vivery, in collaboration with the Greater Chicago Food Depository, to bridge the digital divide, and connect neighbors with food and resources to break the hunger cycle. In 2021, Vivery was officially launched to increase access to nutritious food and other food services, for everyone. Vivery Community is a public charity established to scale access to nutritious food and benefits for everyone. We do this by: • Bringing Vivery technology to food banks, food pantries, and the neighbors they serve across the nation—at no cost. • Building sustainable, community-based Food is Medicine programs in partnership with charitable food and local healthcare partners. As a passionate and innovative team, we strongly believe that food equity creates health equity.
