March, 2024

Remember when we could not buy toilet paper at the grocery store? Remember when everyone was making sourdough at home and finding a bag of flour was like a treasure hunt? These are the questions we hear so often as the world adjusts to a post-peak pandemic world.

Many in our community are experiencing levels of food insecurity at pandemic peak levels or greater.

We need your help to continue bringing culturally appropriate groceries neighborhoods with food deserts!

Over the course of the past year, we have been continuing to fulfill our obligation to be a core tenet of providing affordable groceries to communities in the Greater Boston Area. We have always been proud of our team's ability to identify where the greatest need is and to then think of sustainable, intentional, and meaningful solutions to support it. With this in mind, we've been planning an expansion of programming with a new methodology in mind.

Our mission remains to provide culturally appropriate foods like rice, beans, and fresh vegetables available steps away from our low-income neighbors’ homes while maintaining the warmth of receiving support in a dignifying way. To this end, we're forged new partnerships with local organizations that represent the ethos we seek to incorporate in our food distribution efforts.

We’ve shown that we can do this in a financially sustainable way, and we’ve seen the need: Costco is too far away, and corner stores often charge double wholesale prices. We need your help to bring the wholesale supply chain that we built over the last year directly to communities in need.

A prime example of an impactful local partnership is our programming at the Moses Youth Center. We are coordinating with the Youth Center to provide support for culinary classes, community dinners, and food distribution to their families that could use an extra hand.

We look forward to your support and appreciate your time spent learning more about food insecurity in our community and the solutions at hand.
