CareSource and Three Square Food Bank unite to tackle hunger in Southern Nevada

By: CareSource via GlobeNewswire
May 22, 2025 at 13:35 PM EDT

LAS VEGAS, May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, CareSource Nevada, a nonprofit managed care organization recently selected to implement Nevada’s Medicaid Managed Care Program, awarded Three Square Food Bank a $10,000 donation and a Heart of the Community Award.

The award, recognizing exceptional commitment to improving health and well-being in communities, was presented during a volunteer event at Three Square’s headquarters, where more than 100 CareSource team members packed hundreds of meals and grocery product for the one in six Southern Nevadans facing hunger.

CareSource’s volunteer efforts and financial support reflect a shared commitment to addressing food insecurity and enhancing the well-being of underserved Nevadans through the consideration of social determinants of health.

“With prices going up and more people struggling to make ends meet, the need for food assistance in our community keeps growing,” said Beth Martino, president and CEO of Three Square. “Thanks to partners like CareSource, we can keep helping more people and stay focused on our mission to make sure everyone has dignified access to the food they need. Together, we’re making a real difference.”

Food insecurity remains a significant challenge across Southern Nevada, with 16% of Clark County residents experiencing limited access to nutritious food. In the rural counties of Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye, also served by Three Square, rates range from 13.6% to 21.94%. To fully meet the need, an estimated 57.8 million additional meals are required annually to close the gap left by federal nutrition programs and charitable resources.

“At CareSource, we believe health care goes beyond doctor visits; it’s about building a healthier foundation for life,” said Jayme Puu, chief executive officer, CareSource Nevada. “The donation and volunteering we provided to Three Square today are just the beginning of our long-term investment in Nevada’s families.”
