bio.site/amealwithdignity For anyone who believes in the human right to food, A Meal With Dignity is a feeding program that provides fresh, organic and sustainable individual bagged lunches, made by hand in small batches, and delivered in person to the

unsheltered homeless where they are. The humanitarian crisis of homelessness in San Francisco led a group of individuals who are passionate about food and helping others to start the grassroots organization in 2017. We believe fresh, in season, organic food is medicine and that it has the power to heal individuals and communities by raising each other up by serving people experiencing homelessness with dignity. What started as a pop-up kitchen in Founder, Joy D'Ovidio's house, with 4 volunteers, has now evolved into a monthly event where closer to 20 volunteers get together to make food with love and passion with the objective of making 5,000 meals by the end of 2021. Through our practice and method, we hope to instill a sense of duty to other communities in all parts of the world to take on the role of community healers, bringing dignity with food to their own specific communities! Please check with your employer about a corporate matching to your donation to AMWD.

Martyrs Day on July 5th is official in San Francisco! Our hard work paid off. Thank you to Alan Wong for helping get the official Proclamation! Thank you so much to all the volunteers and those who helped bring this together.

As a little bonus, Bradley Golden painted a beautiful portrait of Harvey Milk that you can see below.
