Step 3: Get Involved

Step 3: Get Involved

The sheer number of organizations in need of donations can be overwhelming, often paralyzing your good intentions. But if you care about good food, it’s important to find ways to give back and support those who are striving to change their communities. It might mean your patronage at a local cafe that supports youth in culinary programs, joining a CSA, sending a letter to your members of congress about agricultural policy, or making a monthly donation that feeds a family thousands of miles away. However you choose to get involved, this section will help you clarify your interests.

How it works:

1
FIND YOUR PASSION. After taking stock of the issues presented in Step 2 and around the web, consider which topics are most important to you. Your choices can be anything from local food banks to agriculture programs in Latin America.
2LEARN MORE. We’ve done preliminary research by offering a listing all in one place, so now it’s your turn to check out their websites, read Annual Reports and see if it’s a good fit for your contribution.
3MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Whether it’s your time, money or support, give according to your own capacity. Help others in your families and communities become more aware of the issues facing our food future.
