The DRE Project

The DRE Project was born out of love. Created by Jennifer JJ Jackson as a tribute to her sister Dre, we deliver home-cooked meals and groceries to families who need them. Our aim is not only to provide aid but also to bring hope -- just like Dre would have wanted. #TheDREProject #GiveBack

Excited to be a part of this network!

We need some urgent help at The DRE Project! We need friendly faces to help us out as volunteer drivers. Our task is simple but meaningful -- delivering meals and groceries.

You get to stock the pantry with our partners @humbledesigndetroit and distribute to families from our partners @newdayfoundation, @kidskickingcancer, @eastersealsmorc, @saydetroit, and @communityhousingnetwork.

Our founder, Jennifer Jackson, shares her story in which she travels through pizza to find her purpose! Thank you to Kate Milligan who guides the journey and on her AMAZING podcast which features REVOLUTIONARY Girls! ??? NEW EPISODE ? ??? ? In this inspiring new episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, listeners are introduced to the incredible Jennifer Jackson, founder of @TheDREProject - a nonprofit organization that delivers home-cooked meals and groceries to individuals and families in need. ? ? LISTEN NOW: https://lnkd.in/gDzfSx3H ? Jennifer founded The DRE Project in honor of her sister, Andrea, who passed away but who was (and still is!) a beacon of light to the world. Jennifer wanted to do something to honor her sister’s legacy and after she began delivering meals to individuals and families in need during the COVID lockdown – she decided to turn those deliveries into something bigger and honor her sister in the process. And that’s how The DRE Project was born. ? ? Jennifer is an example to all of us that we can all do something to make a difference in the world. Jennifer’s dream job as a kid was to work with her dad’s pizza business (Hungry Howies) and while she achieved that and still works there to this day, she wanted to do more and help others – which started out as buying meals for others and now has turned into this incredible nonprofit mission. We can all do something to make a difference in our communities and in the world. ? ? LISTEN to episode #212 of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast: https://lnkd.in/gDzfSx3H ?
