Our Mission
Background
Zia was started in 2015 when its founder partnered with a local elementary
school to cook for families in need. Zia has expanded to opening a food pantry in
that same school, providing 8-10 meals a month to almost forty member families.
Our Mission
Our Mission
Our Mission
Children who face food insecurity do not perform as well in school as their food-
secure counterparts. Zia (which means “auntie” in Italian) is a charitable
organization that aims to combat the food insecurity of children in an urban
educational setting so they have even more tools to get a great education,
launching them into successful and happy lives.
