MISSION AND VISION
We have a vision of a world of healthy people and communities. Everyone deserves to have a good job, and everyone deserves to eat well.
Our mission is to serve impoverished individuals and families through workforce development and food access.
Our unique employment training program uses farming to teach transferable skills to individuals with barriers to employment. Highland Heights Foundation empowers individuals with the tools, connections, and confidence to find and keep stable jobs, providing a path out of poverty and towards self-sufficiency.
Highland Heights Foundation grows fresh farm produce, donating our harvest to food banks and pantries within our community. By promoting fresh food consumption, increasing food choices, and disseminating information about local food systems, nutrition, and wellness, we aim to improve the health of our entire community.
“It is an eternal obligation toward the human being not to let him suffer from hunger when one has a chance of coming to his assistance.”
