About Us

How We Started

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Lori Campbell noticed that some of her students were growing hungry as a result of pandemic. To act on this, she started buying and delivering groceries to families in need. She was shortly joined by a small group of Christ followers she met with on Wednesdays.


After several months of shopping and delivering, these acts of services to the local Hayward and San Lorenzo community gained enough traction for us to file and become a 501(c) government recognized non profit organization!
