Today, we did something most thought impossible. People from all across Philadelphiaโ€™s food ecosystem came TOGETHER at Temple University for the Philadelphia Food Summit to break down silos and work with one another to identify real, community-driven solutions to overcoming food insecurity.

Thank you to every volunteer, organizer, partner, sponsor, and community member helping bring this convening to life.

Weโ€™re looking forward to what comes next.

You watched them bring down the house on stage with a powerful performance exploring food insecurity and the systemic inequities that drive hunger. Earlier that morning, we had the privilege of watching it all come together behind the scenes.

Over 1,100 nonprofits are operating in the Philadelphia region. Most are working in silos, separately and without coordination. And finding the right nonprofit to help in the right way is a challenge for everyone. Weโ€™re changing that with our partners The โ€˜Mโ€™ Movement!
