Fayth Ross' Story

I love the Urban Roots mission (growing healthy minds, bodies, and the community), I really do. But when I'm asked what I love about my job and this org - without fail - my answer is always THE TEAM. I call them "my kids" but they are the most incredible, passionate, creative, and dedicated group of individuals I've ever had the pleasure of working with. 

They've allowed me to lead them for four years now (they call me "Queen Bee" or their "Fearless Leader") and I get physically nauseous at the thought of not protecting them. 

While this overall fundraiser is to support the mission and our ability to change the way kids eat and learn, MY GOAL for this fundraiser is to support the TEAM and the people who make Urban Roots what it is today. Due to restrictions of the pandemic, our tiny little nonprofit is suffering. Suffering HARD - as in furloughs across the team (myself included). 

I'm going Mama Bear on this one. Please help and please support my kids - this team - and the livelihood of these individuals making a difference in Reno and beyond. EVERY dollar helps.
