Rachel Brooks, aged 22, from the United States has been recognized with the highest accolade a young person can achieve for social action or humanitarian efforts – The Diana Award.
Established in memory of Diana, Princess of Wales, the Award is given out by the charity of the same name and has the support of both her sons, HRH The Prince of Wales and Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex.
Rachel founded ‘Securing Safe Food’ in 2020, aiming to ensure unrestricted access to allergy-safe foods for those in need. Since its founding, this student-led nonprofit has distributed over 29,500 pounds of allergen-free foods, partnered with over 30 food pantries across nine states, collaborated with over 18 allergen-friendly food manufacturers, and implemented groundbreaking allergy-safe zones in food banks. Through virtual training and bilingual signage, the initiative educates staff on preventing cross-contact and understanding dietary needs. Despite living with chronic medical conditions, Rachel’s determination drives her to expand the organisation’s impact, addressing both food insecurity and sustainability. Her passion inspires a nationwide movement toward safe, inclusive, and equitable food distribution systems.
