Food for Friends Fridays was created by Florence, a 7-year-old passionate about food justice. After volunteering at food distributions in her neighborhood, she realized that kids could play a bigger role in helping their communities. She started this initiative to involve families and children in solving food insecurity, one meal at a time.

What started as a small idea is growing into something bigger—a citywide effort to connect families, schools, and communities through food and kindness.
