PHENND Fellows- Community Building Liaison

For 15 years, Feast of Justice has supported households experiencing poverty and food insecurity in Northeast Philadelphia through food and resource assistance. We serve 2000 unique households and are one of the largest food providers in the city—distributing 2 million pounds of food since the pandemic began. Yet, much of our work, in a foot-traffic dependent area, supports the immediate neighborhood. We are now embarking on an expansion project—to bring these resources to a neighboring community, while also co-locating with other agencies in a service hub to provide hope in even broader ways.
