STRIPED is deeply grateful to our longtime friend and founding supporter Ellen Feldberg Gordon. So much of what STRIPED has achieved since our founding more than a decade ago can be traced back to Ellen and her unwavering vision for a world without eating disorders.

STRIPED is immensely grateful for the many individuals who have generously supported our work over the years, and we are so thankful for the opportunities they have given us to continue our pioneering work in eating disorders prevention. In addition, our work would not be possible without the many grants we have received from foundations, government agencies, and other funders, including our current funding from:
