VOLUNTEERING WITH DC GREENS

Through DC Greens, I’ve led cooking demonstrations to help kids (and their caregivers) learn about affordable nutrition and distributed waivers for free fruits and vegetables at my local farmer’s market.  

About DC Greens

DC Greens advances health equity by building a just and resilient food system. Founded in 2009, we are a multiracial organization that focuses on creating cross-sector collaborations, advancing equitable, city-wide policy solutions, and working in solidarity with marginalized communities experiencing poverty and food insecurity. 

Our vision is a capital city in which health equity is a central value, healthy food is a human right, and all residents have the resources to shape and control policies and programs for their own communities.
