2023 Round Up Recipient
Last year we made the decision to pick one beneficiary per year for the Round Up for Food Justice donations. We wanted the program funds to have the highest level of impact possible. Ideally, enough funds for a single organization to be able to do something major; hire a new member of their team, develop more internal or external infrastructure, and embark on the next chapter of their community-driven dream.
We received dozens of applications for the 2023 Round Up funds and the decision was not easy. We leaned on the 5 activities that we support (from our website) to see which of our applicants had the most in common:
01 - 501c3 Organizations that directly work to decrease food insecurity and hunger.
02 - Nutrition, cooking, and gardening (teaching folks to grow their own food) education.
03 - Community crisis such as increased houselessness and hunger.
04 - Assistance to farmers and ranchers in crisis such as those brought about by our extensive drought and wildfire seasons.
05 - Assistance to organizations and startups that contribute to increasing our local food supply and that will do so using ethical, sustainable, regenerative practices.
We then took a vote with all 16 managers at the co-op and the decision was unanimous: SOULFUL SEEDS
This local nonprofit provides fresh, healthy food to community members in need through neighborhood gardens. Founded in 2018 by Earstin and Dee Schafer-Whitten, Soulful Seeds operates two gardens that bring nutrient dense foods to the neighborhoods in our community that need it most. The gardens allow Soulful Seeds to provide neighbors with healthy food at no cost, education around food preservation and wellness, and host workforce development opportunities that improve employment opportunities for neighbors. The agency’s largest project is a 3-acre urban garden located on the Our Place Campus, which offers transitional housing to 350 unhoused women and their children each night.
Round Up funds offer Soulful Seeds a predictable revenue source that allows them to responsibly budget and plan programs. In 2022, Round Up funds supported Soulful Seeds to host 870 community volunteer hours and distribute 5,475 pounds of food in the neighborhoods where they operate.
