“Food security is a human right and is necessary to attain physical, emotional, mental and even spiritual wellbeing. As a former teacher, I have seen firsthand how the lack of proper nourishment can create a variety of roadblocks for children. I envision a future in which food security is attainable for everyone - and it all starts with a community that cares about the success of all of its members. When we are all healthy, we can accomplish great things and tackle even bigger issues together.”
