A Note From Our Founder
"Hi, I'm Karen. Two years ago, my son came home from college for winter break. He looked off. Tired. Quiet. His gums were a little red. At first I thought it was just burnout. Then I started researching."
"What I discovered shocked me. Scurvy isn't gone. It's just moved from ships to basements. That's why I started Stop Scurvy. Not because I'm dramatic — but because someone needed to speak up."
P.S. He's doing much better now. He even ate a clementine last month.
