Dietary habits and nutrition play a critical role in preventing food insecurity, hunger, and the health effects associated with the issues.
Recognizing this, we lead nutrition education through our Greenville Community Garden Project and Fitness and Nutrition (FAN) Program.
With families in increasing need of diverse, nutritious food to sustain their health, we lead a year-round, continuous effort in providing free, healthy food supplies to families. Our hope is to deconstruct the socioeconomic, geographic, and mental barriers between low-income families and access to healthy food.

Much of our impact is a result of our community's support and efforts. We recognize that involving more community members in our cause inspires more needed action and increases awareness on food insecurity and hunger.
