Describe the challenge you want to address:
Families face food insecurity and lack family literacy programs to foster bonding and educational growth.
What is the solution to the challenge?
Host weekly Community Food & Literacy Nights every Friday from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM, offering a shared meal, family literacy activities, and resources to connect families with local food assistance programs. Each session would feature storytime for kids, ESL workshops for adults, and free book giveaways.
