This Earth Day, we are not able to take to the streets and demand a livable future. We must stay physically distant, but that doesn’t mean we can’t come together to care for our community in other ways!

We’re raising $1200 for Just Food, an organization which serves thousands of folks in our community, ensuring access to fresh and healthy food.
🌎 Food Justice is Climate Justice 🌎

🌾 Food production is carbon intensive, and food waste is a huge source of greenhouse gas emissions. Just Food rescued over 1 MILLION pounds of food last year and distributed them to folks in need!
🌅 As the climate crisis disrupts our food production and supply chains, it is more important than ever to reduce food waste and ensure food access in our communities. Healthy food is a right, not a luxury.
🍎Solidarity is needed now more than ever. As layoffs continue, Just Food has seen a massive increase in need in our community
