Our Mission

Our Mission Statement

To radically transform the lives of women of color by addressing fundamental survival needs—nourishment, childcare, and wellness—through community-rooted, culturally relevant solutions. We provide sustainable food access through community gardening, low-to-no-cost sweat equity childcare with flexible hours, and holistic programs that prioritize mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. Through partnerships with medical and nonprofit providers, we remove barriers to care and help lift the financial burdens of food and childcare from the bottom line of household budgets—restoring dignity, agency, and rest to the lives of women of color.

A thriving future where women of color are nourished, supported, and equipped with the resources and collective power to lead resilient, self-sustaining communities.
