Organizational Values and Commitments

Facilitate healing and the creation of memories

At the root of our workis the intergenerational healing of Community members who have been disenfranchised and traumatized by colonial violence and the fierce and intentional reclamation of our Ancestral practices and futures, so we can thrive.

Cultivate a Community of Imagination

Our Community has not only been politically, economically and socially disenfranchised, our dreams and imaginations have been repressed and robbed. We are building collective strategies, intentions, processes so that our Community can be in realignment with their imagination and manifest the futures we long for.

Reinvest in our Community

We partner and purchase directly from local Latine and BIPoC farms, grocery stores, and distributors. We also work with Latinx and BIPoC artists, chefs, vendors, artists and creatives.

Provide culturally rooted services

From the way we greet and serve our Community at our food bank, to how we are building the foundation and infrastructure of our organization, we want to ensure that our services are rooted in Ancestral practices, values and ways of our Community.
