NATIONAL BUNNY DAY!

We planted seeds for the fall, established a monarch butterfly way station (shoutout Office of Environmental Programs for the inspo!) and of course…hung out with the little superstars on their big day. What a blast!

A huge thank you to Camelback Montessori for investing your service hours into our garden. We couldn’t have these bunnies without your handiwork in building their bay!

Wanna know a secret? 🤫 the bunnies are here everyday! You can meet them any Monday or Saturday at our garden days. Sign up in our bio! 🪴

🎉 Look back at an exciting moment from earlier this month! A poster from CCF's own Jeff Boles and Patsy Kraeger, "The Healthy Resilient Empowerment Bond," was one of just 16 selected for the Social Outcomes Conference 2026 Poster Gallery at Oxford University's Blavatnik School of Government.
Jeff and Patsy's project explores a new way to fund things communities need most — like food security, cooling for hot summers, job training, and neighborhood improvements — through an innovative financing approach called a "HuCAP bond."
The photo shows Anna Ulshöfer and Jonathan Davies from Oxford's Government Outcomes Lab holding up the poster with Jeff, all the way over in the UK! It was pretty amazing to see their work get recognition on a global stage.
Check it out — it was poster #4 in the gallery: https://lnkd.in/gnvRxnj5
So proud of Jeff and Patsy for sharing solutions at this level. 💙


🎉 ¡Recordando un momento emocionante de principios de este mes! Un póster de Jeff Boles y Patsy Kraeger, de CCF, titulado "The Healthy Resilient Empowerment Bond" (El Bono de Empoderamiento Resiliente y Saludable), fue uno de solo 16 seleccionados para la Galería de Pósteres de la Conferencia de Resultados Sociales 2026 (SOC26) en la Blavatnik School of Government de la Universidad de Oxford.
El proyecto de Jeff y Patsy explora una nueva forma de financiar lo que las comunidades más necesitan —como seguridad alimentaria, mitigación del calor, desarrollo laboral y mejoras en los barrios— a través de un enfoque de financiamiento innovador llamado "bono HuCAP".
La foto muestra a Anna Ulshöfer y Jonathan Davies, del Government Outcomes Lab de Oxford, sosteniendo el póster junto a Jeff, ¡allá en el Reino Unido! Fue increíble ver que su trabajo recibiera reconocimiento a nivel mundial.
Échale un vistazo — fue el póster número 4 en la galería: https://lnkd.in/gnvRxnj5
Muy orgullosos de Jeff y Patsy por compartir soluciones a este nivel. 💙

💜 Huge thanks to our 9/12 Feeding Phoenix partners!

Feeding Phoenix distributions run on community support — and this week we got a great reminder of that. A big thank you to Area Agency on Aging, Region One (AAA; https://www.aaaphx.org/) for coming out to support our food distribution and connect families with even more resources. Your presence made a real difference for the folks we served that day.

And a very special thank you to Tiff's Treats for donating 6 dozen cookies to keep our volunteer crew fueled and smiling! Feeding families is hard, hot, rewarding work — and having a sweet treat waiting mid-shift meant more than you know. (As you can see, our volunteers were... very enthusiastic taste-testers. 🍪)

No kid should go hungry — and no volunteer should go hungry either. Thank you both for showing up for our community!

👉 Learn more or volunteer with us at https://www.feedingphoenix.org/.



💜 ¡Un enorme agradecimiento a nuestros socios de Feeding Phoenix del 12/9!

Las distribuciones de Feeding Phoenix funcionan gracias al apoyo de la comunidad — y esta semana tuvimos un gran recordatorio de eso. Un gran agradecimiento a la Agencia de Área sobre el Envejecimiento, Región Uno (AAA; https://www.aaaphx.org/) por venir a apoyar nuestra distribución de alimentos y conectar a las familias con aún más recursos. Su presencia marcó una verdadera diferencia para las personas que atendimos ese día.

Y un agradecimiento muy especial a Tiff's Treats por donar 6 docenas de galletas para mantener a nuestro equipo de voluntarios con energía y sonrisas. Alimentar a las familias es un trabajo duro, caluroso y gratificante — y tener un dulce esperando a mitad del turno significó más de lo que se imaginan. (Como pueden ver, nuestros voluntarios fueron... catadores muy entusiastas. 🍪)

Ningún niño debería pasar hambre — y ningún voluntario tampoco. ¡Gracias a ambos por apoyar a nuestra comunidad!

👉 Conozcan más o sean voluntarios con nosotros en https://www.feedingphoenix.org/.
