ANNOUNCING OUR
2023 GRANTEES

We kicked off the Rural Child Hunger Innovation Lab’s Incubation Workshop by celebrating the five selected organizations who are at the forefront of exciting work to end child hunger in rural communities across the US.



Bidii Baby is focusing on increasing farm-to-school sales of Indigenous foods and last-mile delivery of fresh produce to community members of the Navajo Nation in San Juan and McKinley counties, New Mexico.

The team plans to build a demonstration farm and kitchen to provide nutrition education using culturally appropriate foods, focusing on a youth audience in Bolivar County in the Mississippi Delta, Mississippi.

The team is partnering with DoorDash to deliver meals to children and families who live in areas with less access to healthy foods in Mercer County, West Virginia.

The San Diego Hunger Coalition is launching a new Hunger Free Navigator™ program for rural communities in partnership with local residents and organizations working to end child hunger in the rural Mountain Empire region of San Diego County, California.

The team is launching a mobile market that travels to their affordable housing locations to sell healthy foods alongside providing healthy recipe cards, nutritious meal kits, cooking demos, and taste testings in Lumberton Housing Authority units in Robeson County, North Carolina.
