Goals:

Education: Our focus will be to shed light on the rich and diverse minorities' culinary heritage and build awareness around the hospitality industry's lack of diversity in menu offerings.

Economic Development: We will partner actively with New American and African diaspora hospitality businesses that seek to bridge the food gap in our community. Culturally affirming cuisines represent an untapped niche market that will create sustainable economic growth in our diverse communities.

Advocacy: To build a proactive partnership with the hospitality industry and community organizations to create forums for the growth of minority food and beverage businesses.

Values:

Education: We believe that education is the pillar for healthy conversation and building strong and equitable communities.

Diversity: We will strive to work with hospitality partners to offer more inclusive and diverse products and services.

Partnership: We will work with local and regional organizations to promote a constructive and successful business open to all.

Service: We are committed to serving our communities above everything else.

A Voice for Change: We are committed to advocating for underrepresented communities and striving for equity and positive social change within the hospitality business and throughout our city.

Determination: We are committed to being trailblazers who strive to change the narrative regarding culturally affirming cuisines.
