Who We Serve
We welcome all families facing food insecurity in Miami-Dade County, regardless of faith, background, or immigration status. Our team includes Haitian Creole-speaking volunteers to ensure every family is met with clarity and care.
How Distribution Works
-
Distributions are held biweekly at Masjid Al-Ansar in North Miami.
-
Families check in and are guided through our welcoming, judgment-free process.
-
Volunteers help load bags and answer any questions about available resources.
Our Approach
We believe food access is a matter of dignity, not charity alone. Every distribution is rooted in respect — for the people we serve, their traditions, and their right to nutritious food.
