Mission Statement
Good Neighbors Mission is to build relationships with organizations and individuals to connect food and other necessities to those in need. We envision a strong community of relationships where everyone has access to food and the other necessities of daily living.
Description
Good Neighbors is feeding local communities while also helping to reduce food waste! Good Neighbors helps connect food with individuals in need to help eliminate food insecurity.
Our volunteers collect food that would otherwise be wasted and then we work to get it straight into the community. This reduces hunger and food waste by leveraging existing resources to serve more people.
We understand that food insecurity is a complex problem and you aren’t sure how to get involved. By supporting our work you are helping to form community connections and bring food to those in need.
