In the wake of COVID, as rising inflation and food insecurity intensify, our community faces complex challenges that demand innovative, collaborative solutions?? Last Wednesday marked a step in the right direction. Joined by the West Metro Chamber , we celebrated the ribbon cutting and official opening of our Community Food Hub, a collaborative effort to locally source, store, and distribute fresh produce to ensure all members of our community have access to healthy, nourishing food?? Enormous thank you to everyone who joined us to honor both the hard work that made this initiative possible, and the profound impact it will have on our community!?? #compassionintoaction #communityunity #communityfoodhub #foodsecurity
