Member Duties : Massachusetts Avenue Project (MAP) is a nonprofit urban farm located on Buffalo's West Side. MAP employs youth year-round and teaches them job readiness and leadership skills through farming, the Mobile Market, kitchen and nutrition education, as well as food policy and civic engagement. The Development Coordinator VISTA will expand the delivery of MAP’s Food Access Initiative (FAI) by working closely with MAP staff to identify and diversify funding opportunities, strengthen existing funder relationships, conduct beneficiary surveys, and design marketing & communications materials. The VISTA will work on the All Access Pass programming which provides a 50% purchasing discount on produce and eggs (no application required), thus reducing the stigma of food subsidy programs, alleviating poverty, and increasing the scale and reach of FAI services.
