Fresh Fridge launches this Friday—bringing fresh food and hope to our community!

F.R.E.S.H. COMMUNITY FRIDGE:

FEEDING RESIDENTS EVERY SINGLE HOUR WITH 24-HOUR ACCESS TO FOOD.

Roots For Life, in collaboration with Common Good City Farms, proudly announces the launch of the F.R.E.S.H. Community Fridge initiative. This program aims to address food insecurity and promote community well-being by providing accessible, nutritious food to those in need.

F.R.E.S.H. (Feeding Residents Every Single Hour) Community Fridge will serve as a local resource where community members can both take and leave food items, fostering a sense of sharing and support within the neighborhood. By working together, we are committed to reducing food waste and ensuring that everyone has access to healthy options.

We invite community members to participate by donating fresh produce, pantry staples, and ready-to-eat meals to the fridge. Moreover, we encourage local residents to utilize this resource as needed. This initiative exemplifies our dedication to cultivating a sustainable, equitable food system and enhancing the overall health of our community.

Together, we can create a resource that nourishes and uplifts our neighbors, strengthening our ties and promoting a culture of kindness and collaboration.

  • A VISION TAKING SHAPE

    Fresh Fridge is more than just a pantry—it's a growing symbol of community care. This space is being built to provide access to fresh, nutritious food for those in need, ensuring no one in our neighborhood goes hungry. Every nail hammered and shelf added brings us closer to a brighter, more connected community.

  • BUILDING HOPE

    The construction of Fresh Fridge represents more than wood and steel—it's a testament to the power of hope and collaboration. Every step in this process is guided by a shared goal: creating a welcoming space where food insecurity can be tackled head-on, and dignity is preserved for all who walk through its doors.

  • SOON TO BE STOCKED

    Fresh Fridge is nearly ready to fulfill its mission: offering a helping hand to those who need it most. As construction nears completion, we are preparing to fill it with fresh produce and essential items, creating a lifeline for families and individuals striving to thrive in challenging times.

This community fridge was made possible thanks to generous donations from Poetry X Hunger. Together, we’re nourishing bodies and souls. Poetry X Hunger harnesses the power of poetry to inspire action against hunger and food insecurity worldwide.
