Ms. Mina is a generous woman of the community who has supported and volunteered at our Urban Farms in the Bronx for over a year. Currently, she is facing the possibility of losing her family home, of which she is the sole owner, where she has lived for over 40 years. Ms. Mina wants to help us, and we want to help her.

Ms. Mina has given us the use of her first floor five bedroom apartment to use as a training center, office space, food storage facility and distribution center as well as emergency housing for our volunteers, as needed. In turn, we want to help make sure she can keep her house up, and maintain ownership of it. It is old, needs some tender love and kindness...and she needs help with maintenance - both financially and technically.

We have operated for over a year, managing two farms with no local indoor headquarters! Now, we have two new spaces- for a total of four farms- and we are expanding our program to include free physical fitness workshops for the community. This space will make our community work much more efficient- and warmer in the winter- and therefore more effective. So, we need to raise some funds and get to renovations!
