Community Food Outreach
Supporting Tri-Region families with essential groceries and culturally appropriate foods.
-
Let’s build something meaningful together.
Strong community partnerships help us reach families through organizations they already know and trust. They also bring different cultural knowledge, community connections, resources and experience to the work.
Through our Circle of Hearts Partnership Program, organizations and businesses can work with Africentric Arts to strengthen community outreach and create more opportunities for children, youth and families.
-
Volunteers support this outreach behind the scenes and on distribution days. You can help organize supplies, welcome families, share information, create social media content or contribute other skills that strengthen the program.
Whether you help in person or use your professional skills, your time can help the outreach run smoothly and reach more people across the Tri-Region.
-
Your donation helps us fill gaps in available food and supplies, prepare each outreach and reach more people across the Tri-Region.
It also helps Africentric Arts keep programs accessible for children, youth and families.
