Food Fighters: Student-Powered Hunger Relief

Student: Courtney Hogan
Community Partner: UNF Institute of Environmental Research and Education, United Way of Northeast Florida, Northeast Florida AIDS Network
The Food Fighters is a student group dedicated to reducing food waste and hunger on campus at UNF and throughout the Jacksonville community. Currently, we recover leftover trays of food from the Osprey Café and repackage it into well-balanced meals to be donated to the Northeast Florida AIDS Network. Our future plans include expanding our reach to recover and donate to more organizations. We will also include nutrition and cooking classes for our constituents as well as educational events to raise awareness about food injustices prevalent in our very own community.
