The PACT Urban Peace Program's Fresh Food Box, part of its Grow-to-Learn initiative, addresses food insecurity in Toronto by distributing organic produce from its urban gardens to vulnerable communities and local food banks.

The Fresh Food Box Program utilizes PACT's 1.8-acre urban gardens to transform unused spaces into vibrant organic gardens in partnership with local schools. This initiative grows a variety of produce, including fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers. The harvested goods are then distributed through food banks, community markets, and directly to families in need.

how has this program impacted or affected yours or people that you know lives?

awareness(2)

geneandrewdaya — 2024-09-24 22:18:59 UTC

with this depending on the idea of choosing we should have completed a goal or spreading awareness of this program to people in the jpci community the community around it or potentially even in a greater area

video(3)

geneandrewdaya — 2024-09-24 22:28:02 UTC

if it's a video it will contain the following: clips of the boxs, the people, workers, maybe a small interview of the different people that gain it

more help(2)

geneandrewdaya — 2024-09-24 22:31:32 UTC

this could be a goal that could benefit this program potentially to some sponsors that could reach out to the garden giving funds and more volunteers

possibility of sponsors(2)

geneandrewdaya — 2024-09-24 22:32:40 UTC

with the ads there could be a potential chance of people wanting to look out for this garden and want to give funds to stabilize it

video format(4)

geneandrewdaya — 2024-09-25 15:56:01 UTC

clips of the packing, clips of the boxes, clips of the boxes being given out, and format itself would be an ad/mini documentary talking about the food box (the idea is similar to what an american medicine ad would look like)

first part(4)

this would be a panel of the food (The carrots, potatoes, corn, onion etc), it being packed (clips from the video that we took on the first day and potentially on another day) there could also be a small voice over of a worker or someone talking how this started how affected peoples lives. this part would take 30sec-1min
