What We Do

Through our program/project partner at Freeman Family Farm Store a grassroots, community driven nonprofit driven to creating safe, empowering and opportunity rich spaces for youth and families in historically underserved neighborhoods. We focus on bridging gaps that traditional systems have overlooked— through culturally grounded education, urban agriculture, workforce development and innovative programming that meets people from where they are. From operating summer camps and mentorship programs to building Pittsburgh's first Black-owned and built grocery store, our work is rooted in equity, access and long-term community sustainability.
