Joy + Connection + empowerment

MISSION AND VISION

At Highland Heights Foundation, our mission is to transform communities through food. We believe that food is more than sustenance; it’s a source of joy, connection, and empowerment.

To achieve this vision, we focus on two key areas:

  • Food Access: We strive to connect individuals and families in need with the resources they need to access fresh, healthy food.
  • Food Education: We offer programs that promote healthy eating habits, culinary skills, and the joy of cooking. By fostering a love of food, we empower individuals to make informed choices and lead healthier lives.

Through these two areas, we strive to create a community where everyone can enjoy the benefits of healthy, delicious food and live fulfilling lives.

Cultivating Joy Through Food

Joy

At Highland Heights Foundation, we believe that food is more than just sustenance; it’s a source of joy and pleasure. Our programs are designed to promote the joy of cooking, sharing meals, and experiencing the delicious flavors of healthy food. We believe that food can bring people together, create lasting memories, and enhance overall well-being.

Building Community Through Food

Connection

Food has the power to connect people from all walks of life. Our programs foster a sense of community by providing opportunities for individuals to come together, share meals, and learn from one another. Whether it’s through cooking classes, community gardens, or food distribution events, we strive to create spaces where people can connect, support one another, and build stronger communities.

Empowering Individuals Through Food Education

Empowerment

We believe that knowledge is power, and food education is a powerful tool for empowerment. Our programs equip individuals with the skills and knowledge they need to make informed choices about their food, prepare healthy meals, and lead healthier lives. By empowering individuals to take control of their food choices, we help them build confidence, improve their well-being, and contribute to a healthier community.
