A guiding sentence
"When 'I' is replaced with 'WE,' even illness becomes wellness."
— Malcolm X
Our story

When "I" becomes "we."

For more than a decade, our work has stood on a single belief — that wellness is not a private accomplishment. It is something we make for each other. We sit with the family in the waiting room. We cook the meals. We fund the research. We hold the hand.

HapiFound is the next chapter of a foundation that began as The Arsenceic Foundation — the perfect blend of art and science. Together, that's how we get to Hapi.

What we do

The work, in chapters.

— 01 / Hands-on

Wellness Coaching

One-to-one and family coaching for people navigating cancer, chronic illness, and the long road back to themselves. We sit with you. We help with food, with questions, with the small daily decisions that compound into healing.

Art & Science Events

Community events, kitchen workshops, and creative gatherings that turn nutrition science into something you can taste, touch, and share with the people you love.

— 04 / Research

Nutraceutical Research

We fund and partner with independent plant-based research — the unglamorous, peer-reviewed kind. Because hope is wonderful and evidence is better, and our families deserve both.

Stories

The other side of it.

Cici · age 4

"On December 14th, her last port came out."

At 15 months, Cici was diagnosed with hepatoblastoma — a rare liver cancer. After 105 chemotherapy doses, four major surgeries, and three recurrences, her family chose a more natural, less toxic path alongside her medical team.

Today she is cancer-free.

Caidin · age 9

"He's still NED — no evidence of disease."

Diagnosed at 21 days old with high-risk neuroblastoma. After chemo and two stem cell transplants the cancer was still there. Caidin's family worked with our founders on a complementary protocol.

On April 28, 2017, Caidin was declared cancer-free. — Zac, Caidin's dad
