In particular, BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities were hit hardest as a result of generations of discrimination-based social destabilization and lack of access to equitable resources. Income instability very often leads to food insecurity. Our approach to addressing this issue is two fold: Purchase CSA shares from Portland's BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) farming community to support revenue in a time when restaurant clients are no longer buying. Gift CSA shares to BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) families experiencing food insecurity who are not currently being served by the social services networks. The second tier of our food justice programming is our weekly pop up pantry or free farmers market. We host this free weekly food event on Thursdays from 10-2pm at our work space: This is a weekly access point of fresh produce, high quality pantry and protein items and more for BIPOC Portlanders. 0 0 0 The aim of our second initiative is to equitably provide assistance with stable housing for single mothers and their families in the Portland metro area. We believe equitable solutions to housing insecurity can be addressed through radical community support. Person-to-person. What does that look like? It looks like donations that will support down payment assistance and rental payments. It looks like generating social capital for long-term growth. It looks like leveraging network equity to find affordable housing options that are not tied to government subsidy. It looks like working together to build a long-term, action-oriented community of support and resources around this issue that lives on outside of the bureaucracy of the system. 198654 66228 0 The third arm of our work is direct actions of how we can learn, grow, and reclaim lost traditions in a way of addressing community wellness. For us it looks like the following programming: Plant Jam Care Packages Special Projects. Examples: backpacks, joy boxes, and period products Monthly Educational series: lunch + learn, happy hour discussion, monthly money talk Community Events 0 0 0 886266 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 0 5 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 OR X Dayna Reed 5039997769 5020 NE M L King Jr Blvd Portland OR 97211 Alanna McCreary Executive Director 40 0 X X 85000 0 0 Lillian Green Housing Director 40.00 0 X 85000 0 0 Tamar Green CSA Director 40 0 X 60741 0 0 Dyvisha Gordon Director of Community Care 40 0 X 49038 0 0 279779 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500000 596860 88760 1096860 0 63 0 63 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1096923 0 63 0 525407 525407 279779 194779 42500 42500 0 37095 37095 62232 27784 34448 33165 26611 3277 3277 36591 36591 20954 3366 12000 5588 3828 1000 2828 14678 6205 3944 4529 5602 5602 10005 3446 6559 3810 3810 5442 5442 4423 4423 Misc 510 510 0 0 Taxes and Licenses 1735 0 1735 0 Payroll Processing 3652 0 3652 0 Meals 8482 3005 0 5477 14551 5000 5000 4551 1071941 886266 119753 65922 226079 246724 1105 650 650 37502 15733 16327 21769 500 500 244661 269643 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 244661 269643 244661 269643 244661 269643 24982 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 1549539 1148001 1110300 1096860 4904700 0 1549539 1148001 1110300 1096860 4904700 4904700 4904700 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 37502 0 15733 21769 21769 1 Support of nutrious food through our CSA program and free pantry and wellness goods through pop-ups, plant jams and events. 900 551453 Cost of goods Produce, Pantry and wellness goods are distributed into community through csa deliveries to over 300 families every week and our free pantry serves ~150 families each week.
