The MOM Foods brand was born from a prayer. Literally. Actually,
that works just fine for Marathon of Miracles since it’s a
faith-based organization. In February of 2009, A.J. prayed and asked
God if He would send someone to help MOM create an all-natural snack
line to help people learn about the benefits of healthy nutrition.
Just seven days later, A.J. received a phone call from Bill Stewart,
president of SCNS Sports Foods. Bill called and said “A.J., would
you let us create an all-natural, healthy snack line for Marathon of
Miracles?” After thinking long and hard about the offer, two
seconds later, A.J. said “Yes!” MOM and SCNS Sports Foods formed a
unique joint venture with both parties committed to doing what they
do best. Just 10 months later, the MOM Foods line was a reality with
all-natural, two types of energy bars and two types of fortified
baked nuts to please the palette while exceeding nutritional needs.

MOM serves everyone regardless of their
faith, ability to pay or health insurance status. MOM is based in
Malibu, CA, but works throughout the United States through a network of
volunteers called Miracle Workers. We hope to do in the world of cancer
what Habitat for Humanity has done for housing and what Feed the
Children has done for hunger. Both of those organizations are Christian
organizations that work with people of all faiths to make a difference.
The long-term goals are to one day provide services to survivors around
the globe and help eradicate cancer in our lifetime. Right now we find
ways to help survivors celebrate each day as a gift, but we long for the
day where there can be a global Survivor Celebration of the end of cancer.
