In the charity's own words

The heart of our mission lies in addressing food insecurity in our community. We understand that there are individuals and families who struggle to access nutritious meals on a regular basis. Therefore, we have made it our goal to ensure that the meals prepared by our young trainees reach those who need them the most, through our unique street food & food hamper delivery service & farming project.
