Who We serve

We serve marginalized expectant and recent mothers, along with families in Lancaster and Columbia, through programs that address nutrition, wellness, and maternal support. Our community garden and satellite pantry have provided fresh produce to over 300 families. Through this work, we ensure that underserved families receive person-centered support that strengthens long-term health and well-being
