WHO is Nourish to Flourish?

 

A group of concerned community leaders

started meeting in April 2018 to understand

the hunger issue on San Juan Island where: 

​

      39% of children are on free or reduced school lunches     

      68% of low-resource individuals said they skipped         

               meals and 14% said they had gone hungry

 And where fruits and vegetables are:

      40% higher compared to U.S. National averages. 

 

These concerned citizens continue to meet with community leaders from the County Health Department, the school district, Food Bank, Food CO-OP and Farmer's Market to develop initiatives to end hunger on San Juan Island. There are no administrative fees and every donation (through the Family Resource Center) is 100% for food purchases, resources, information, and education.
