Donating non perishable food items or money is a great way to directly support our cause. (We can coordinate pickups if you are local or you could contact us on our instagram page @s.p.a.r.k.outreach regarding specifics). If you want to take your support for our project even further, you can organize a local fundraiser or food packing event with some friends to pack food kits together.

Food insecurity is the inaccessibility to consistent nutritious meals to live an active, healthy life.  Unfortunately, the coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated food insecurity, particularly, among low income families of color, who were also hit the hardest by the pandemic.  

But through systematic effort, food insecurity can be seriously reduced with adovcacy and civic engagement. By contacting local government officials, you can urge them to indicate support for legislation to improve affordability and access to nutritious food.  

Join our efforts to highlight the detrimental effects of food insecurity, which is exactly what we need in order to bring attention and pressure to the issue.  Read our articles below!  Write your own and email them to sparkoutreach11@gmail.com to be featured
