RSVP for our inaugural fundraiser May 16!
Nonprofit partnerships
Plate & Pathways welcomes and regularly engages in partnerships with other nonprofits and community organizations.


What we need
We have several restaurant partners who provide us with hot meals to redistribute to the community. However, we could always use more. Feel free to share any information you have regarding food diversion or trusted food partners.
Most of our current obstacles pertain to space and storage.
Our fundraising goal is $60,000/year to rent our own space. In the meantime, we are reliant on pop-up events and shared kitchen access to bring our programs to the community.
What we can help with
Since we are a smaller nonprofit, we do not always have the capacity to provide a large quantity of volunteers.
Where we can help most is in spreading your message and promoting upcoming events to our social media followers, our volunteers, and our broader network.
We also partner with local groups to assist with food and clothing distribution events and other programs that align with food security and nutrition education.
