As we close out 2024, we’re celebrating a year of remarkable growth, collaboration, and impact. This year reaffirmed our commitment to building a more equitable, resilient food system while deepening our sustainability efforts and strengthening partnerships.

‍

We launched new Retaaza Rx Farm Fresh Markets, including our first on-campus market, and expanded with three new locations in partnership with the Metro Atlanta Coalition for Healthy Neighborhoods. Our Field to Fork food rescue program, in collaboration with Second Helpings Atlanta, advanced our mission to reduce food waste and increase food access across our communities.

‍

We recalculated our greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions in partnership with Georgia Tech and joined 1% for the Planet, reinforcing our environmental commitment. Additionally, we earned WBENC and WOSB certification as a woman-owned business and gained national recognition for our thought leadership, with speaking engagements at a joint Food Tank and White House summit and the Aspen Institute’s Conversations on Food Justice Series.

‍

These milestones are a testament to the dedication of our team, partners, and the communities we serve - and to the power of collaboration in reshaping how we feed our communities!

‍

THANK YOU to our team for your heart and hard work, to our partners for allowing us to serve alongside you, and to the communities for allowing us to serve with you. We’re incredibly grateful for the support that made this year possible and look forward to another year of impact, growth, and progress together.
