The community fridge has also provided a tremendous support in increasing food security for local families and expand the life of food for redistribution. Thank you, Change X, for your incredible work and global efforts.

Action plan:
Timeline: When will you be able to start your project? How often will your team meet? Are there any key dates to share for the project?
Budget: You don't need to share exact prices, but please share how you're planning to spend the seed funding & what costs you're anticipating to get your project up and running:
Impact: How will your community benefit from this project? Do you have any measurable goals for your project, such as the number of people that will participate? Are you hoping to spread knowledge or increase interest in a specific subject?
Location: If your project requires physical space, have you decided the location? Do you have all necessary permission and permits to carry out your project at the chosen location?
Our community fridge initiative goal is to increase food accessibility while contributing towards food waste reduction. Our strategy is to source opportunities to save quality food prior to being disposed of. We will create and expand relationships with local grocery stores, restaurants and food service providers. The food will be redistributed through our food pantry programming and daily to those in dire need of healthy food options.
