Thank you for helping build this space with us—one hand at a time.
A home big enough for all of us.
Expand Food Access.
Strengthen Community.
Double Our Impact.
We have a new space. But we can’t move in yet.
After years of growing demand, we secured a building that can finally match the scale of what this community is asking of us. That is a reason to celebrate and also a reason we need to act now.
The space sits empty right now not because the need is unclear, and not because our work is slowing down. It isn’t ready yet to safely store food, prepare meals, and welcome the neighbors who rely on us every week.
We need to raise $300,000 to make it functional. While we work toward that goal, more families come through the door each week.
This is more than just a building.
It’s stability, dignity, and making sure no one goes hungry on our watch.
The Vision:
What this community made happen in 2025
Together, we showed what is possible when people show up for each other.
- 12,000 food boxes distributed
- 475K pounds of food rescued
- Made and distributed 27,000 burritos
Yet more families, more children, more neighbors still need consistent access to food. The demand isn’t slowing. Neither are we.

I volunteer with Burrito Brigade, and this work has changed how I see my community.
I’ve helped pack food, hand out meals, and see the direct impact that access to good food can have on someone’s day—or even their week. It’s simple work, but it matters.
Last year, Burrito Brigade distributed 12,000 food boxes, rescued 475,000 pounds of food, and made more than 27,000 burritos. Behind those numbers are real people who rely on this support.
Right now, we have the opportunity to grow that impact.
Burrito Brigade has purchased a building and is working to transform it into a Community Food Hub. Expanding this space means more food rescued, more meals prepared, and more people reached—especially women and children facing food insecurity.
I’m raising money because I believe in this work, and I’ve seen firsthand what it does for our community.
If you’re able, I’d truly appreciate your support. Every contribution helps ensure more people have access to fresh, healthy food.
