  • Provide support with the coordination of mobile food fairs hosted by Hearts and Hands of Baytown, ministry of Iglesia Cristo Viene, delivering more than 2 million pounds of fresh produce throughout the community
  • Support and train multiple food pantries to develop sustainable strategies for providing fresh fruits and vegetables to their clients in efforts to help them practice lifelong healthy eating habits
  • Engage nonprofits, local businesses and government entities to work together to bring additional health and wellness resources to the community
