About the project
Food To The People is a direct response to our community affected by Covid-19's devastating toll on an already unjust food system. We aim to provide food assistance to those who cannot afford it. We will also empower and educate people with the tools and knowledge to grow their own food and gain self-sustainability.
The Steps
Purchase supplies for growing food at home
Partner with Mutual Aid and other community organizations to distribute meals
Rent trucks or vans to make deliveries
Perform surveys within the community to identify ongoing needs
Why we‘re doing it
Food To The People will connect neighbors through collective resilience. Providing meals will help alleviate the large economic burden that many are facing. Getting people to start growing their own food will create a deeper appreciation for the earth and have long lasting positive effects.
