Help Us Nourish and Empower Underserved Youth

Interns Exhibit cropped
As the interns walk into the garden, we put them straight to work. From pulling stubborn weeds to spreading mulching across the beds, we see them doing hard work but can’t foresee if their stomachs are empty. Yet, what remains unseen is the emptiness they carry inside—not of energy, but of nourishment.
Interns in food-insecure households face chronic challenges, such as insufficient energy, stemming from inconsistent access to balanced and nutritious meals. A Living Library’s (A.L.L.) main objective is to raise awareness to this issue and serve as a catalyst for change.
A.L.L. realizes that nourishing our interns, with healthy meals and snacks, directly supports their ability to work and think effectively. Addressing interns’ nutritional needs ensures their well-being while fostering environments where they thrive. Providing healthy meals and snacks is more than just sustenance–it’s life and a reflection of our commitment to equity and, hopefully, the solution to food injustice.
